you know.... I think everyone is making too much of a big deal to a certain extent on how the cams affect the lag of the powerband...Now, if you go to a big cam where you have to upgrade your valvetrain, then yes, you will lose some low end, but if you are talking about tomei 256's vs. hks 264 step 1's or jwt S3's and S4's, i think they are negligable assuming the same turbo. In other words, from experience, GT2871r .86 is NOTICEABLY laggier than GT2871r .64 vs. the cams I mentioned above, if that makes sense. All in all, I am VERY happy with my setup. From my experience, GT2871r .86 with S3's REALLY sucked vs. my current setup of GT2871r with .64 housing and S4 cams.
