The grind basically changes the shape of the camshaft lobes to provide more and longer lift. The powerband on our cars (if you look at a dyno chart) has peak horsepower at about 3500 rpm and 4300 rpm if I remember correctly. Pretty much no power above 5,000 rpms to redline. The biggest advantage to the cams is they give a steady amount of power from 4500 rpms up to redline. There's not much else you can do to change that, the motor from the factory was designed for gas mileage. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
