the whole idea of the Rocket Sprockets is to apply cam timing changes to the BMW.

I tested the advancing of the cam timing 3 degrees at a time on the dyno and stopped at 9 degrees.

What this does is open and close the valves earlier lower the torque peak by 800 to 1,000 rpms depending on the model.

This means that the torque is moved to a more useable range and you can shift at lower rpms and not need to downshift on the highway.

I hope you all enjoy the way they liven up the BMW to make them more fun to ride.
