On Thu 11/28/04 11:45 AM , "Turbo Tim" tim@zzperformance.com sent:

I will try to keep this short,Stage 1 cams are a great upgrade! With the shafts and balancer the engine will be able to rev to 8000 without issue. 350-360whp is fine for the stock block as long as it is dyno tuned and not setup ridiculously aggressive. Stage 3 cams are way to big, my Redline rev’d to 9500 rpm with a 2.4L engine, so on a 2.0L it would rev to 11000+ rpm and the rest of the car is not really setup for that right now.





Thank you for your business,

Are these the same lift/duration as the comp stage 3? Cause they make peak power no where close to 11,000 rpm.

I know three people who have ran them with with a boosted application (two turbo and one supercharged) and made peak power near 7000rpm.
