I went with the MS3 because I was worried about what .649 lift on the MS4 would do to my springs.

it is my understanding that the Ms4 has more low and midend torque also.

good point, when looking at cam reviews many focus on only peak power and nothing under the curve. Most people arnt at peak power all the time. Thats why im still using my F13, it doesnt peak as high as MS do but everyone iv run aginst that had MS's have only seen my taillights.

Who are the dual springs from? I went the MS4 route. Cant complain at all. Drives almost like stock. The only thing the car doesnt liket o cruise with the RPMs lower than 1500. Also sometimes onthe highway you may really need to step on the gas to get it going in sixth, or you gotta downshift to fifth. The cam makes power from 2300 and up.
