i bought them from some one that ordered them a little while back. since this year tho.
i think they need to be dialed in as they were making less power when they installed it in the prervious car they were in
where can i get an adjustable cam gear? or will i have to "make" one
x2 heard alot of stuff about them! Put me off getting a set!

main problem was the gear locator dowel on the exhaust cam was in the wrong place meaning the exhaust cam was never in sync with the intake-so couldnt be dialled in with an adjustable pulley. im still waiting for my replacement cam
Ted, i got a pm from Sam the other day say the cams were stuck in customs. So hopefully they will be here soon.

Going on what Sam has advised you should hopefully receive your replacement in the next week or so.

i dont have that problem with the dowel. it fits. i have seen it fit.
what i wanna know is if these cams need dialing in as i know not all cams will need this, and if so where can i get an adjustable cam gear.

I dont think your understanding here,
The dowel has been placed in the wrong position, not so the pulley wont fit on, but the angle from the original timing marks.
My set was half a tooth out,on the mesh gear, so pretty much no use,
Remember if you adjust the exhaust cam, you will adjust the intake cam the same amount
