Have had these for a while now, but just finished the install on friday. I am still driving them in but they do sound great, definitley a more throaty sound from the engine now, especially up in the rev range. Crower 'claim' a 10-20% gain on a stock 1zz engine, whether that is true or not who knows...but it would be nice! Monkey Wrench also believe these to work super well with the trd charger setup, but also believe there are good gains from a stock 1zz.

But he has a turbo bolted on....Can't really see how effective they actually are, and with 9thgen, MO there are conflicting reports.

Once you add in the cost of upgrading the valve train and an ECU, if you want the most benefit, they aren't so cheap. Shipped from Piper to your door they are about $1500 for either stage 1,2 or 3. But that doesn't include taxes. Or about $1200 without shipping or tax from MWR, but they are on special this month :o. Edit: Stage 1 do not require upgraded valvetrain.

Anyway this thread is about Harry needing to go to Willowbank to show them off.

haha nice, there seems to be a lot of interest and yes it is rare that a topic is not about a CAI!

All up for the cams and install (not including tune) it cost around $1000...which is quite expensive. Even though Crower say that stage 1 doesn't need a tune, which they don't, i would recommend getting one. I will be getting one soon, as i think they really do benefit from one.

Also regarding cams in a NA car...there is noticeable gains up in the rev range, especially in 2nd and 3rd, that is what i have felt anyway. However, the gains in a FI car would be much better, with a good tune.

$1000 USD or AUD?????? If it cost that much installed then I wouldn't mind a stage 2 put into my sportivo. Sometimes it feels like it takes forever to get into lift....

Stage 2 would be great but a PFC is really needed for it

Crower only make 1zz cams, you need to buy Piper cams for the 2zz, price and information for them are listed above in my last post.

yup my cams have been in for a little while now and there is more pull high up in the revs. However there is a definitley less down low. With a full tune (ie. emanage) the cams would be much better. Or something like a supercharger, :spiteful:

I bought crowers for my GSi teg years ago Stage2s..

with valve train gear and cam gears..'

I never got around to instaling but i sold them to a mate and he put them in..

with out tuning the car idled like a truck!!!

after tunning with EMS stinger he gained 18hp ATW!!!!

Ive had a run with him side by side and this teg would bust out a 14sec pass!!!!

Great cams...

Their vtec profiles arent realy that agresive thats y im opting for a Japanese brand..

Get them tuned to feel an even bigger difference!!!!!

Why spend 1000s on cams and valvetrain gear and be happy with a car that only makes 2hp more and idles like crap???

when you can tune it and make 20hp and make it idle so sweet!!!!

Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up?

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      Android auto

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.
