Ah, sorry... Well its a 5.8l GTS 5spd, so yeah it felt fast! Hahaha :^). 80-130 came on very strong, and incredibly smooth. They are very "even" cams... Power all the time. Well engineered power band.

i had piper regrind my GTS cams with more lift and duration. the longer stroke engines produce power and tourque further down in the rev range anyway and the slight increases made to my grind keep the power very even all the way through till at least six k. if you take a look at 928 developmants web site you can see numbers for a range of grinds progressing from mild (aka stock S4) upwards. the GT cams mark the factory limits, devek say there 'b' cam is a bit beyond the GT specs and can be run in a stock head.
