Vac motorsports cylinder head upgrades

Hey guys at eurofest i saw Vac motorsports had a staged 3 ported and polished cylinder head avaliable for the n54. Spoke to a rep and he said it has not been installed on a car yet but looked really beautiful.

Im wondering why more people havnt looked into this, they have a couple of different options.


Stage 1

Stage 1+

Stage 3

Interesting upgrade though, its a thought to do along with a turbo upgrade, maybe just a stage 1+ which is a small port and polish with a cleaning of the heads!

What are the gains? Also, a $3000 core charge can be a little intimidating for some.

No clue of the gains they were waiting for a car to put them on, seems like its a good upgrade though for people doing turbo upgrades.

Also the people from tawain look like there thinking about the same upgrade also

Head and cams should be a great upgrade. Hopefully we can see some nice gains out of it. Has anyone tried this so far?
