I doubt you will see negative effects for highway mileage.

Makes me look forward to installing my jackhammer cam gears. I've got basically stock heads (and stock cams) so I would expect similar across-the-board gains.
Any updates on this on a somewhat more modded car..?
Thinking out loud here, with the cam gears dropped in, are you re-syncing base timing? I wonder if the "gains across the board" are due to the base timing shift? Thought would be that the cas sensor is spun as the cams are spun to align with the new mark, this changing base timing.
I wonder what the effect would be on a 2g car?
When we had done the cam gears we had the ecu crap out which was throwing a CEL for a cas. So, it was replaced only to find that the ecu was bad. I'll be getting our other stealth together within the next couple of weeks to try to get more back to back numbers. These initial numbers were done on a car we have for sale, so I really don't want to go tinkering in that thing anymore... but you do make a valid point.
Do you guys plan on doing anymore stock vs gzp gear dyno runs?
I can't wait to get all my stuff assembled.
+1 im really curious if niterydr was right and the cam gears are just modifying the base ignition timing. however, since the CAS sensor takes readings from the intake cam only (right?), im guessing the GZP cam gears dont just shift the ignition timing... otherwise there would be no point to the exhaust cam gear.
we will do more dyno tests when the time is right. Right now we don't have a car we would run them on.
