I love these cams. You can run them on stock springs w/ stock rev limit, or aftermarket springs. I've run mine with GSC's beehive's since I had them. Installed Nov 2008, they have about 20k miles on them. These are the hot cam for all purposes: stock turbo, stock frame upgrade, or big turbo! Best part is they idle like buttah, easiest 'big' aftermarket cam to dial idle in on.

Specs are (intake/exhaust): 272°/272° 11.0mm/ 11.0mm

I made 360+whp on an IX turbo with these on alky, and 432whp with them on my BBK.

I'm contemplating upgrading to GSC S2's (aftermarket springs required IMHO). Make me an offer. They were about $525 new, and still go for about that from your fav local vendor. I'll consider helping you install them in your car too, if you throw some beer/pizza into the deal.

I'm super happy with these and am in zero rush to get rid of them, so no lowball offers, just offer me a reasonable price and we'll make a deal.

Aren't evo 8 and dsm cams the same? or are they different?

I guess he wants a rougher idle. :D

a little. I've had my eye on these for months now. They are a marginal improvement over the kelfords, but hey, every little bit counts :). I have the springs to rev them and the speed density to make them idle nice, so why not?
