HP Tuners, Camshafts and more...?

Ok, folks, you've been tuning with HP a while. Waiting to hear some news on camshafts, still haven't seen any. Secondly, I had a silly idea. Couldn't we just cut the vacuum line at the boost bypass, install a valve, and go from bypassed to non-bypassed and the turn of the valve?

no, I never got the chance. Spooner and a group did one day before an event I held, but I couldn't make it. his a/f looked good with the 2.8, but he did max out his injectors at around 6,000 I think.

what price are they talking about? the ones I have should be around 400 a set shipped I would think. And what is there grind like? mine is set up for the 10.5 to 1 pistons. not much lift added, but we maxed out the duration.

At 6500 it heads north, but it's rich when it starts, so its only around 6800 that it gets leaner than 12.5. So not lean, but maxed.
