Question Cams in a 3.4 C2

Clicking aroung on FVD's site and saw they offer a set of "sport" cams. Anyone have any experience with them? Or any others?

Please, share with all 3.4-owners!

Porsche own powerkit consists of modified heads, cams, intake, headers and programming. Plus the oil evacuation business. Still they claim no more than +20 hp max on a 3,4. It would be interresting to compare.

that works out to

330 hp
284 lb ft tq

now the question is, is that crank HP or at the wheels?

I believe FVD graphs always reflect actual engine performance off an engine dyno* Like porsche itself does it. So that would be a gain of 335-296 = an honest 39BHP....not worth the cost of cams + installation with all the other support mods too IMO...
