Default TMan Cams

I was thinking about purchasing the 555 tourqster cam. Can anyone tell me about them? Is there a real power boost? Will it spin tires or lift the front wheel off the ground? I have a 2016 Street glide Special.

A cam only change is not going to get you the results your looking for... Although the 555 cams that are a replica of the woods cams will produce nice power...

a difference yes, but not mind blowing. I did a stage 2 on a 103, and eventually went 124. If you want a wow factor I'd do some More homework. Lots of options and its cheaper to do it $ (right) the first time.

you need to put the 30t solid primary gear, and clutch spring, if you want to wheely a street glide. That is one of the cams people use that like to wheely and do burnouts
