Hi all.
So I recently pulled the trigger and bought a BEW AMC cam from Bora Parts for my BHW. Aaron from Bora indicated that the vast majority of his clients buy the BEW cam over the BHW. I went with his recommendation and only after doing so, did some searching on tdiclub.com and found several people who suggest not going with the BEW cam as it ran very poorly, had lower power and felt very sluggish. Aaron indicated only a 1-2hp loss when I spoke with him on the phone, which I thought to be reasonable weighing on pros of the BEW (better reliability/longevity) as the lobes on BHW cam to be more radical. However then I start reading about adjusting the torsion values and wonder if the people that made the comments about the BEW cam did not adjust the torsion values correctly and perhaps it's not as bad as they first indicated if torsion values were adjusted correctly. Aaron said that if I felt there was a huge loss he would help out with a tune, but a tune also costs more money and I'm trying to do this on a budget otherwise would be doing the franko6 or colt cams. Aaron has been great with answering my questions.
