Default What rpm does your power kick in?

Hi guys! Just doing some homework on camshafts.What sort of cam do you have and when does the power start to pull hard?
Feedback would be great!!

JMM Dev3HL pulls HARD from 3500-5200rpm.

Hangs on well after 5000rpm and doesn't struggle to hit the rev limiter in any gear ie 3rd at 189kmh so still producing good power. Yes speedo correction is fooling speed limiter that we are going slower than actual speed.

Worse than stock cam with extractors from 750-2500rpm. This is the normal rev range used in city suburban driving with an auto and stock converter!

From 2500-3500 goes better than stock but not exciting.

Stock cam and internals distinctly picks up its ИИИИ at 3500 all the way to 5800, 1500-3500 feels like its doing something but no great quantity of it though :

Crow 2549 (There's three numbers ahead of it, either 222 or 223, I'm not sure of which ones, because it only had 2549 stamped on it)

Pulls from around 2500 rpm.

Mate I currently have 3 cams ready to be tested..not dyno but daily driven using gtech pro..I have dev 4 ,xr6hp,stock and one on the way which I am saying nothink!! Want to see how they each go .The dev 4 so far has been good.I think it needs some decent springs as they avoid valve float and actually help produce more top end power than the same car with standard springs.

One other thing..what felt faster didnt actually go faster ..so some sort of timing device is a must to verify quicker or slower'

The 2031 220 kw cam is awesome boys. Pulls well from 2000-6000rpm and has great economy. Lumpy bastard for a factory cam too.

mate gtech is the was to go for tuning ,same bit of road same conditions .
be sure to let me how your secret weapon goes.xr6 hp is a bit underated i reckon not a bad cam at all .
the stock one i don't reckon would be worth wastin your time on , but as far as comparisons go would be interesting to see what it dose.
the dev 4 ,well it worked for me , maybe if you could get hold of a dev 5 would be interesting .
are you going to get it tuned for each cam ,or just run it on the stock ecu?
