These cams were custom ordered with guidance from Mino at Achilles Motorsports and deliver exceptional track performance. In our testing, they produced over 225 wheel horsepower through a DCT on a 2.5L engine, revving reliably to 8600 RPM. Power potential is even higher when paired with a 3.0L engine.
If you’re chasing even more performance, be sure to check out the ported M54 cylinder head we also have available—this combo works extremely well together.
