Default RPM performance in Garner NC

Took car to RPM in NC for AHP heads (MS90 guides and BTR springs but no porting or shaving} and mild cam should be done by Friday. Not going to be big HP gain but the peace of mind that goes with the heads, well worth it.

You won't regret it. At least you can drive it now without worrying about it. I fixed mine with only 4000 miles on it.

It's a mild cam TSP (N) all I know is 635 lift What I told them when ordering was I wanted Mid range power not top end and this is what they suggested. Also a conservative tune.

Please share how it drives after their tune if you will. I'm trying to decide between a few shops in the area. Thanks.

I just got home from picking car up from RPM in NC. AHP heads MS90 guides BTR springs, that is all work to the heads, TSP 2.2 cam 234/246, 635/635, 112.5 LSA and a Hall tech CAI. Car was tuned on Dynojet Dyno, Max Power=527.98 RPM=6.31K Max Torque=474.04 RPM=4.96K Car drives very good and sounds great am totally satisfied with all work and car so far.
