I just installed the FP 4Rs over this weekend. I'll have some factual numbers in a week or so once I go back on the dyno as the only thing I have changed is cams. Initial impression is very good and I haven't even changed my MIVEC map yet.

My tuner has been suggesting these cams for my IX the last couple months, I know he is friends with the FP guys and I wouldn't be surprised if he knows a little of the results that will be in the AMS cam shoot out write up.

I'm still on the stock turbo, not sure if 4Rs are the right cam for your turbo but Jake did well with them in his DSM.

I am going on my buddies Dyno today. If for some reason today doesn't work out, I'll be participating in a dyno day at the very same shop on May 3rd.

Latest turbo mag has AMS's cam shootout review part 1. I believe they test Tomei, Crane , and HKS 272. Not sure what cams are in their next article.
