Why do headers, ported heads, and cams show such little gains?

[QUOTE="Juiced46, post: 15586557, member: 11519"] You can make more power with the CORRECT setup. When you are maxxing out an Eaton or a smaller twin screw, you probably will not see much of a gain. Alot of these guys just throw in "Staged" cams from Comp or Crower which really are not setup well for making power. If you go with a set of custom cams ground to your specific combo, degreed properly and ported heads there will be gains. For example. A customer of mine ran a very similar combo to mine. Same turbo kit, same tuner, same dyno, same days. Only difference in our combos was he had ported heads and custom ground turbo cams. He would make around 120rwhp MORE then me @ 2#s of boost less. Moral of the story, if you want to see gains, have a set of custom grinds made taylored to your exact combo and DEGREE them properly and you will see gains. If you buy Comp or Crower stage 3s, bolt them in with no degreeing, you are better off throwing your money in the garbage.... [/QUOTE]
