30 ft-lbs of torque is a real nice gain. Damn you guys. I thought I was done modding my car. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

When you're trying to squeeze every bit of power out? Yes, absolutely. I'd buy them. Granted, I'd do my own labor, but if it really came down to it I'd get my heads built at the same time... kill two birds with one stack of Benjamins.

If you know of any other N/A mod that can give me a torque curve like the graph that was shown above, let me know.

You can blame nissan for making the heads so complicated. It's not a bad mod, just its labor intensive, or just download an fsm and do it yourself. For 1600 you can have these cams installed with built heads.

I'm sure the price Kyle quoted is if you give him the heads off the motor already. This is just machining costs and assembly of just the heads. Not actual tear down and reinstall.

Default exhaust valve lift

I notice in the 2012 service manual that the bank 2 exhaust cam has about 1.7mm more lift than bank 1. Do these cams have a similar lift difference for bank 1 and bank 2?


Edited typo on cam lift.

That is strange, the JWT units are identical side to side but let me talk with them and see about this. There have been some weird changes to these motors over the years.
