E63 Cam upgrade?

Has anyone upgraded their Cams?

Who is making good cams for the M156?

Any dyno sheets with Cams, Long Tubes and Tunes?

Thanks!

Interested in this as well. I fond some aftermarket cams for $6k providing a mere 20hp increase, so they were not very appealing to me at all.

^ This -

You're really not going to get a lot out of the NA motor. Headers and a tune maybe 50 (give or take) more HP? Call it a day at that.
Even a boosted motor I wouldn't go for the cams, big $ with little gains.

We have one set of billet steel cam cores left(out if 16 sets), for the M156 engine. We have multiple profiles we can grind them to.

If you have any questions, just ask.

Power gains are going to depend on what profiles we use, the rest of the engine upgrades, and tune. Since they're billet steel cams, we can grind them to anything, and keep the stock base circle. They also cost less then $6k

Anyone try 159 cams? Not sure of the difference in specs or cost. Just a thought.
