Default Wood TW-555 vs SE255 Cam Dyno Comparison by Fuel Moto

As noted in an earlier thread Fuel Moto is going to thoroughly test both the Wood's TW-555 cams and the Screamin Eagle SE255 cams as a direct comparison. We are going to use the following test procedure and have everything scheduled for tomorrow Jan 11th.

The bike is a 2010 Street Glide 96" with a Jackpot 2/1/2 headpipe, Jackpot mufflers, Stage 1 air cleaner and a Dynojet Power Vision. The bike currently has the TW-555 cams installed and I will start tomorrow a.m with a dyno evaluation which will give our base numbers for the TW-555 cams. We will then swap cams to the SE 255's and I will give it a full dyno tune. When finished I will again complete a full dyno evaluation for the SE 255 cams. The tests will be performed on the same bike, same day, same fuel, etc... These are both great cam choices and I am as interested as everyone else in seeying the exact differences. I will post information as it becomes available.

A thanks goes out to Lp for sending me the SE 255 cams for this test.

subscribed to this one too. I expect to be doing a complete motor overhaul soon, and these two cams are at the top of the list for my kind of riding.

Just let me know... The test will be interesting. The TW's should make better peak numbers at mid to upper range. The 255s make excellent low end torque and pull hard into 4500 range- perfect for a big touring bike, especially with two up and shifting regularly. It all boils down to the rider's preferences and riding style... I do some real aggressive riding with some buddies personally...

Thanks to Jamie and FuelMoto for the test, and to LP for providing the set...
