Im still running my BC stage2 N/A cams and BC Ti valvetrain. I have had no problems, and the car feels great. The car has more midrange power than before. I start to feel the pulling at 4300RPM. Make sure you get a new TCT when you install the camshafts. Mine rattled with the new cams. Replaced and fixed rattle.

You NEED to get your car on a dyno, I wanna see the gains! I'm hoping that BC has revised the cams, because most of the negative reviews seem to be atleast a few years old. I'll ask him about that.

Sorry to hear you blew your motor 4bang6, did he atleast take care of you and fix your blown motor?

I'll do a baseline, before & after. Hopefully within the next month.

Ok cool, I got the BC stg. 2 cams and valvesprings, retainers sitting here. I still need to get valves though, just to be safe, since I'm nearly at 100k.

I didn't know you blew your motor, I was referring to 4bang6, who posted before you.

I followed that thread and your butt is not a valid measurement of the quality of your upgrade. save $50 bucks and come back with some real information.

I'll be installing his cams soon. I'll let everyone know if they make power or not.
None of us are holding our breaths whether you'll get back to us with results or not.

It's not a coincidence we never hear back from anyone who 'claimed' they would do a pre- and post- dyno of BC cams. Because there's usually nothing positive to report.

I'm not asking any of you to "hold your breath".

I didn't start this thread and I don't care if anyone is excited about the FACT I am going to install his cams and valvetrain. I don't want to get banned for "commercial reasons" again, so I'm not going to post a direct link to who I got an internship with, but it's a media company, and my BC cams install will be a tech story.

If the results are minimal, or even negative, it will be shown.

Interested in the results, although the cams have never worked out in the past to have good results with anyone.

GL. At the very least make sure the tuner/installer is good or it might cost you more than a dissapointing article.
