Now, years later, people are making pleeeenty of horses from cams on the S54

Anyone that looks at the power curve of the S65 will know there are plenty of HP waiting for you.

There is almost zero information regarding the install, but I'm considering doing a cam DIY install over winter
I think it took about 6-7 years after the end of production to get significant gains from cams on the S54. Even now there still is a bit of mystery around it.

I'm sure you can get a 10%-ish WHP increase like the E46...its just gonna take time and patience. Then someone with funds to waste.
