s3 intake/ s4 exhaust set up
I have these cams s3 intake/ s4 exhaust. Got them locally. Just wondering if anybody has run this. I have been unable to locate an s4 intake or s3 exhaust cam, to complete a set. So I am going to put these in. Just wondering how car would respond to these NA.
I know NA favors a bigger intake cam. Obviously they are bigger cams, so there would be some difference. So would putting these in still be an upgrade, or does anyone know how car would respond?

If it were me I'd probably just run the s3 intake cam but chime in otherwise

The price of one cam new isnt much. I bought a brand new S4 cam and I think it was like $200 plus shipping

I did not see any dynos or anyones experiences with this set up. Thats why I was wondering how it would fare. I did see this on the old forum in a cam thread.

In NA form the SR20DE motor likes a slightly bigger intake cam.

For NA I like the Toda cams. It seems they have the NA combination down pact on the real big cams. Slightly bigger on Exhast and little smaller on Intake.

If you are going NA and sometimes going to use NOS C2s or S4s is what I like.

Please remember this is all my opinion.

As far as cams go for a refrence point I like the JWT cams but wish they made the S4s with a little more duration like 270 degrees duration or the C1 with like like 270-274 degrees of duration. These would be my ultimate all around Turbo or NA cams.

I run cams with specs just like JWT C1's and I wish I had a longer duration exhaust cam.

The car will run fine. I used this combo for NOS, it worked great off of NOS also.


Just put he cams in and drive.

I would think the price to be higher than that for one.

If a set of JWT cams are $565, there is no way they would sell one for $200. In that case buy intake for $200 and call in a week and buy the exhaust for $200 and you get JWT cams for $400 plus shipping.

@ Andreas Miko, If I'm reading the replies here correctly the members replying are saying that you could run just the JWT S3 intake cam only, along with the stock SR20DE exhaust cam. My question, will the engine run and perform with added benefit from this mix match? If so what are the pro's and con's. Please explain as I already have a set of JWT S3's and was thinking of installing this set once used in my 1995 INFINITI G20t into my 1999 INFINITI G20.
