Cam advice

[tofferson]

I've been looking at different cams for my supercharged build I'm fully forged but I'm unsure which way to go I've been looking at the stage 3 NA cams from jeggs rpm range from 3500 to 8000 and then I was looking at the lsj zzp cams stage 2 or stage 3
The stage 2 says peak power is at 7800 rpm and stage 3 peak power is 8500
What I don't understand is that the zzp stage 3 is a milder cam than the stage 3 NA but max rpm is higher
If I was to go for a stage 3 zzp would I be sacrificing lower end performance or would I be wasting them by capping my rpms around 7500
I have noticed the the stage 3 zzp inlet cam is identical to the stage 2 zzp only the exhaust is diff.
In case anyone hasn't already guessed I'm clueless about cams just don't wanna order wrongs ones when there 600 a set
Any help or opinions apretiated

In reality max bhp is not at the quoted peak power rpm, most peak between 6800 and 7400 rpm

It really depends on what max bhp you want, 350 - blower cams or zzp stage 2 cams, 400 - zzp stage 3 cams, above that then NA stage 3 cams

A wild card is some cat cams ... http://www.catcams.co.uk/acatalog/copy_of_copy_of_copy_of_Full_Profile_Listing.html

4603114 (stage 3 NA) or 4603115 (stage 4), I am running the 4603251 (stage 5) in mine

im wanting 300 + but with the option of going higher if I wanted to without having to buy more cams thankyou for the information there's so many lol

vocky is defo the cam man i got the stage 3 turbo cams for cheap there very loapy same as the stage2 blower cams from zzp
i did pm vocky about cams many moons ago

 

[vocky]

stage 2 zzp or blower cams work fine up to 350 or so, so perhaps stage 3 zzp might be an idea
