The World's Fastest E55 CAMS are Mine
The VRP cams arrived today and I cannot wait to get them installed. I'm anxious to get some real track numbers to see what they do for my car. From talking to the couple of people that have them, as long as I raise my idle I should be fine. I hope they work as good as the look.
Thanks Albert and Victor.

Alek,
Go here for pricing on VRP cams:
https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...highlight=Cams
My pricing was slightly different (see title)
AMGFan, our mods are similar. Once I get these cams in plus the airbox/intake tubes, I expect to see a significant improvement in power (trap speed) at the track. Oh, I forgot the engine cover.....that should deliver at least 10hp

Very nice Dave!!!!
You are gonna love them!!!!
Keith.. I just spec'd out a nice addition to the list.. We can put a tiny shot of NOS ontop of the S/C and the Twin Turbos.. You know.. just in case some car happens to stay close... Nothing more than a 150shot.. really small...
Hey Lee!! Nice to see you still around!
Its basically a custom tune that will do to Keith's car once the parts are installed.. We'll watch the ECU with DAS on the dyno and make changes to the ECU with Powerchip's help until we fine tune the programming.
Did I steer you wrong? I told you that you would love them!
Can't wait for the dynos.. Good luck!

How does the car feel when your just crusing or chilling at a red light? Are they very aggressive and rough or nice and smooth?
Congrats man, I love seeing these cars step up to the next level

you can feel them. I raised my idle cuzz I want it smooth as possable but you still feel the car change. it feels like the idle is changing from low revs to high revs. nothing realy big, but very weird the first time you drive it.
