I knew I'd been sent these details....
Winner of "Best New Street Performance Product" at SEMA, the all new COMP® 4-Pattern Camshafts are designed to optimize valve events based on runner length and feature a large increase in area under the curve and stability at high RPM.
NASCAR teams have been using camshafts designed this way for years, but this is the first ever use of technology in street vehicles to balance air/fuel ratio per cylinder.
4-Pattern Cams can net you 1000+ RPM over other hydraulic rollers and anywhere from 5-20+ horsepower peak to peak, depending on cylinder head flow.
4-Pattern Cams feature four different lobe patterns, with one intake and exhaust design for outboard runners, and another intake and exhaust design for the inboard runners.
While the four inboard cylinders are all the same grinds, the outboard exhaust openings are two degrees earlier, with outboard intake closings coming two degrees later.

Would be quite awesome.
I don't think any of the modern factory DI cars are running individual lambda sensors - far too expensive for the gains they offer, not to mention you'd need something that would run close to the header and the risk of signal contamination is high in most factory systems, where the exhaust runner lengths are on the order of 4-7".
