How much was the install at a FRPP authorized dealer if I may ask? And you did not need to replace the valve springs on these, correct?

I bought them from www.suttonhp.com who (from what I heard) got the very first shipment from Ford Racing. I was one of the first seven orders that were shipped (they only got 7 cams in). No idea on gas mileage really since I just got them yesterday. Ask me in a week or two. Emissions? What are emissions? I'm in Detroit, we don't worry about things like that



Scott, I will be running her on a dyno soon. While I don't have a before dyno run, we all know roughly what these cars put down with an intake, tune and O/R mid-pipe. I also have absolutely no idle issues at all now. This is a new cam to the market and it took a bit of tweaking. I'm good now!


Glad to hear you got your idle issues working out so fast. Good for Doug!! I think I saw where you are going to do the OBX longtubes soon. Make sure you take another vid after those puppies are on. I predict you will really be in than.
Scott

Scott - I chose the OBX headers mainly because of the information you provided on them, so thank you for that. I will be sure to post a video then. She should sound pretty **** sick at that point!

Doug is my hero right now. He's really busting his *** to get this tune perfect for me. I have a tune to load that he sent me last night, and then I have to test that out, but we're almost where we need to be.

OfficeSpace - These are NSR, so no spring change. Install was $460.

Well if any thing I have posted about the OBX headers has swayed you to their quality and great fitment than I am glad I helped a little bit. They are a quality product at less than half the price of the competition.

Tribal Do you have any plans on getting a Dyno to see where you stood as far as power gained?

Scott- Didn't you say you gained roughly 20peak rwhp from the Comp/Brenspeed NSR Cams?

Im curious to see how the numbers compare...

Slam - Yes, I will be getting some dyno time in soon.

Here is the information from the website I ordered the cams from (www.suttonhp.com)

# The most powerful cams available that are safe with production valvetrain.
# Currently being used in Rough Rider off-road race trucks
# Engineered by the same designers of the stock camshafts no other cam manufacture has the aggressive sound and durability these cams offer
# Upgrade for the 2005-08 Mustang GT 4.6L 3V engine
# Increases lift from the stock 11mm to 12mm
# Compatible with production springs, followers and lash adjusters up to 6800rpm
# 50hp gain(SAE-J1349)with the stock intake and M-6049-P CNC heads at 6500 rpm. 30hp gain without CNC heads.
# Requires custom calibration to achieve optimized performance
# This camshaft provides a lopey idol reminiscent of 1960's muscle cars, no other modular camshaft sounds like this.

It may have been answered but how do the price of these compare to the Comp Cams?

Hey Matt,
Here is what I payed for the Comp NRS cams from Brenspeed in Jan. And the install price was an additional $280.00. Just for reference. I guess the price didn't come thru. They are $645 shipped.
