I think the S1X cam from intense is right up your alley. Great cam for stock heads. Personally i'm going to run the xp cam but i'm using nitrous to take advantage of the exhaust duration on it. There's also the NIC from ZZP which is a crazy cam for non-i/c'd cars but it's really aggressive and not the best daily driver cam, not to mention you need a really experienced 3800 tuner to get it running correctly. That's just a little info i can throw your way.

i vote s1x as well. it's got a more usable powerband than the xp for street use.
i would love to go cammed again, but im not putting that kind of money into this car anymore. if i would, id either get a NIC or TEP. both mean, mean cams that you can run on stock heads.

thanks guys!!! yea its my daily driver so i just want to feel some more pull.. not looking for anything too crazy, its just once i do something to my car its ok for a little while then i need more. its like an addiction and it always takes just a little more to get that high!! Great forum and great people here!!!

anybody out there using the VS cam from ZZP? i was looking at it and it caught my attention. im comparing it to the comp cam extreme energy cam.. anyone out there with any advice would be greatly appreciated

The VS cam is better than stock for sure but it usually put on intercooled cars...a guy here is running mid 12's on a GenV and VS with no IC and headers...but is a tuning genius so who knows.

There's plenty of people running the VS cam, but I'm confused on what you're asking for. What cam are you trying to compare it to? Comp Cams Xtreme Energy is a style of lobe Comp makes, with a whole variety of lifts and durations available. IIRC, the VS cam uses an Xtreme Energy lobe on the intake side, and an Xtreme 4X4 lobe on the exhaust side. I believe Comp has put together some cams for the L67 with the Xtreme Energy lobes, but they had a few different ones available last I checked.Originally Posted by JayGTP02

a VS is a waste of money. get a bigger cam.
06-21-2009
LOL, sure, because someone who just wants a mild daily driver needs an XPZ, right?
06-21-2009
this might be a stupid question.. but what does the N/A mean next to the cam specs for the XPZ?
06-21-2009
not sure what you mean...i dont even see where they published the specs, but i will tell you it is probably one of the best cams for an m90 setup. it is a smaller cam, which is shown with how you can run 1.7:1 rockers with it.
if i were to go with another cam i would go with something HUGE. something at least in the .575 area for both intake/exhaust lift.
06-21-2009
It means Not Available, they don't give out the specs for it.
06-22-2009
bigger is not always better....
somebody had to say it.

This is true, if your planning on getting head work done take a list of cams to your machinist and get your heads flown and tested. They can tell you what the best cam is for your heads and if you want to you can get a cam ground to your own specs for optimum performance

i need videos of that cam, stat.
06-23-2009
bobbies ..

Oh really? Maybe I have the headwork done already?
