LR had a good balanced response.

And my little bit of experience here. When I purchased my 951 the PO had a mix of parts based loosely on LR's kits. When I upgraded my turbo LR was very helpful and patiently listened as i described the "pseudo" kit my buddy (PO) had put together from a variety of sources. Some were LR parts and some not. He suggestedone of their turbos and provided a number of other suggestions. I bought that turbo along with a number of other bits and pieces.

LR predicted 310 RWHP at 16psi...I hit 297.8 at only14.7psi. They looked over my dyno chart and pointed me in the right direction for more power throughout the range. They were right btw....just haven't been back to the dyno but power comes on nice now

I wasn't intending to rain thunder on LR. I've used their products and probably will be using more..

Thanks for that post mike, It does clear it up a bit

If you're still reading.. if i put one of your camshafts on, how much of a power increase should i expect?

Adam, haven't seen you here in a while!

What grind is the webcam, and what will it do performance wise?

I can't say enough about the advantages of a good cam. It really makes a good deal of difference. About 30wh. I have a stage 3 JME cam. The best thing about it is that hp is maintained along with rpms and your first instinct is to not want to up-shift. Simply because the cars power doesn't drop of like the stock cam. If you ask me it could even be worth more hp gain at higher boost. Definitely one of the best upgrades... I'm still using stock lifters. But I can see the advantages of going solid. Higher RPM with extended power range is a deadly combination.
