Great price! I almost pulled the trigger on Sunir's set but this price is even better. I wonder if more owners will sell their cams because of the lumpy idle. What's the book time to install these excluding the custom tuning and possibly titanium retainers and upgraded springs?

Why is everyone selling these if they make some good power.

i cant speak for everyone but the reasom for sellng mine is because i thought it was the cause of my low end drivability issues. after removing i still had the same issues. turned out to be a sensor. stock cams are back in now and i am now putting these back in.

ill be the first to admit that these are aggressive cams and not simple plug and play HOWEVER they def produce and good 15 to 20 up top and this has been well documented buy people who are still running them as well as people who got rid of them. the car pulls harder in the mid to upper powerband and has a much more lumpy idle.

any takers?

I heard from a couple of members on here that they encountered some driveability issues as well with those same cams but not much complain about idle. Are you installing the cams back in?

The specs on these cams are very, very mild.. If you have any idle or drivability issues, then they are not tuned . IMO

yes the deal fell through only because the cams never shipped after I made payment on March 11. I still wante them but you won't give me a tracking number before I close the dispute. Good luck with the sale. I'm going to buy a new set directly from Pat for $2200.

Good for you. I thought $1,400 was a great deal for me but I hope you got your asking price from the other buyer.

05 ML-500 , 03 CLK5.5 AMG has left the Garage
Lets be truthful

I have not sold or set a pair of Cams to AMGSC. Unless he contacted me under an alias. And I still have not ship any cams in the last 40 days. I stated back in another thread , I would prefer AMGSC get his current issues fixed ! I do not want to be part of his current car traumas. I'm sure Richard at Dyno comp. will correct his issues 1st.

I have not purchased a set from you yet. I only got an estimated price range. I was only expressing my intentions but they may have been misunderstood.

Did Richard tell you something I don't know because he told me everything was going swell so far. He updates me at least weekly. Do you make an elbow adapter to a Kleemann SC for the 82mm TB? I will PM you as I might want to replace the silicone elbow with a hard plastic or aluminimum one with wings/fins inside to smooth out the air flow.

I just heard that you did not ship the cams to the other guy who bought these from you as of today. What's the deal?

I thought you said they were boxed and ready to go but so far you have been ducking his emails. You are doing the same things to him as you did to me. He filed a dispute with Paypal too.

what is YOUR deal? i shipped the cams 3 weeks ago. UPS lost the package so i had to file a claim. took them a week to find the cams and will be delivered hopefully today or tomorrow. if you dont believe me go to www.ups.com and type in k1804941847. you can clearly see when i sent the package and that it never delivered.

im glad you are so concerned about everbodys well being. unfortunately this time your assumptions were wrong. if yo would like to make yet another follow up call on my behalf to UPS and confirm any of the above please feel free. im tired of sitting on the phone 20 minutes at a time trying to locate a package. and for the record i have responded to EVERY email from the buyer both in email or through paypal dispute process. its annoying as fuvk but its being handled. apparently you didnt get the full story so there it is.

lastly, i have dealt with SEVERAL board members. i have paid for their dynos, given them free components after i removed them from my car, helped EVERYONE who has needed it to the best of my ability. just because i was out of pocket with my full-term pregnant wife and unable to ship the cams in a timely fashion (which i took full responsibility for and publicly apologized for after INSTANTLY refunding the money to you) doesnt mean you should come on to a board i call home and try to call me out.
