Well if JMM ever got back to me regarding this I would tell you. However they didn't, So I looked elsewhere, and found the RPD/Alted cams. Very very happy with this, and their customer service is incredible.
I'm running the RPD stage 3, I would like to compare specs with the Dev 5

dev 5 cam is great but you really need headwork and higher diff gears to make the most of it

so all u guys getting 14 out of these cams is that with headwork because wanna get the cam and springs and adjustable gear first then get the head work done down the track abit. and also i am running a manual with xr computer full exhaust and pod. im hoping for 14s if i get that then i will most likely just settle down and buy a jap car for speed. really i just want a quick enough car for now then i want a turbocharged car later on. thanx everyone for there help.

I did a 15 flat with a dev 2 cam, and it was a trusty humid hot night at willowbank QLD. I want to bring my car down south to drop .5 of a sec !
