Default B18b1 exospeed cams gains??

I am trying to figure out how big of a gain in hp that I'll see from adding these cams. I've got the typical i/h/e and a chipped ecu. Has anyone had good luck with these? Just wondering.
Thanks

I'm considering the ls909 cams. It says that I don't need a valve train to use the cams, as long as I don't go past the stock rev limit. But if I still have fuel and ignition maps couldn't I go a little past it? Or is that when the stock springs just give out.
thanks

i have/selling my sr909 cam (sohc zc) - its a good cam and didnt require valvetrain upgrades. to really extract the power from the cams you need to get it dyno tuned and helps to have cam sprockets, fuel pressure regulator. then you'll feel it. i didnt have time to dyno the car plus im going b18a turbo this year so im selling my cam.

you can pull 10+whp with tuning

Wil just wrote back. He said that they were made for all motor but should work alright with nitrous, depending on how I tune it.
