i talked to them last week about that cam..they said it was a pretty big difference on top end..low to mid on that cam is about the same as there regular cam.

from what i understand if you use that cam you need their high compression piston as well.

You have to get the titaniun intake valve set to use the x4 cam

At least that is what they told me yesterday. They said you would gain about a 1 pr 2 horse on top end
