How is the low end performance on these cams? Say from 2K through 3K?

No complaints, still more than stock, but im not one that worries about 6th gear roll on at say 55 or 60. These bikes are geared too high for that,...i downshift. As far as 1st on up its a big improvement.At 2800 rpm its heading north of 100tq.
