You shouldn't be worried about why and just look at the dyno's and see that we DO make more power. If your the consumer you need to worry about the end result ie all the dyno numbers out there not the process that we went through to make that a reality.

Appearantly the GSCs are pretty popular. I ordered a set of 272in/264ex for my 2005 Evo about 3 weeks ago from Logic Performance, and I'm still waiting. I have an appointment this Saturday for my first custom Dynoflash at TopSpeed in Atlanta this Saturday, and I really expected to have those cams in for the tune.
I'll let you guys know what I think of them once they're in.

Ok here is my story about GSC cams.
Before I moved out here to Phoenix I ran into some extra cash that was burning a hole through my pocket...so I got some GSC 264/264 cams. Went down to MZM in Austin TX, who is known for tuning Apexi Power FCs pretty well. These guys are a class act, and truly care about their customer's cars (which is MORE than MOST shops out there, trust me). In fact they care so much, they almost didn't install my "GSC Cams" in favor of "Proven" HKS Cams. But the fact that I drove 7 hours to Austin, and was basically at their doorstep, they decided to anyway. By the end of the weekend after some tuning, they couldn't believe how much power I was making from the setup. On a mustang Dyno they were seeing 255 to 260 awhp from cams and a few bolt ons like my car. I turned out a 277 in the end. Take that for what its worth.
After it was all said and done, they were highly impressed with the cams, and the car in general . Too bad I sold it for a 2005
I did post my cams up for sale in the "for sale" section of EvoM, but to be honest, I might just keep them and put them in my 2005.
(And Cody, you know you are a closet ricer...just admit it!)

robert, you will catch hell for bumping stuff like this from the search ****'s.
the s2's are a bit "lopey", but they are some of the best cams out there. definitely better than HKS. there really are a lot of Cam VS Cam tests out there.
i wanna say buschur or AMS did back to back to back to back test with various cams
i would search for that as there was a lot of good information in the thread. what is in the car you have now?
