My install for the cams was between $700-$800. In the 32 motor they really wake up the top end. The car just keeps pulling. I am very happy with the purchase.
Erick provided great service as always.

If we put everything including HE, cams, fuel injectors, ECU, LET crank pulley and code3 SC pulley, what kind of hp/tq to the wheels are we looking at here. Just curious.

Well the s/c max rpm is 20,700.
What's code3 sc pulley size again? 65.8mm?
Using LET 185mm, it turns out to be 185 : 65.8 = 2.81155 ratio x 7000 rpm = 19,680 s/c rpm. Scary, but still below the limit.
Or better yet, use 181mm - 181 : 65.8 = 2.75 x 7000 = 19,250 s/c rpm

Cool..thanks for the info. I share your concern, but even more so with the 181 with teh code3 as I have thrown "check engine" lights with overboost just with the 185 by itself.
I guess time will have to tell..

I'm almost sure you can safely put 185 crank + 65.8 s/c as long as you don't go above 6200 rpm. That would put you well below the 10% off of your s/c rpm limit.
The sound would be awesome tho !!
PS: just realized you also have a white C32.

What's the threshold of s/c rpm before it triggers the "check engine" warning?

It does sound freaking incredible as it is now...!!!

You could always run a MAP clamp to avoid this problem but it is a band aide and you will not be adding any more fuel.
