S54 High Performance Camshafts

Build Journal: A special series
More, always more.
When I bought the S54 powered E46 M3, I told myself I'd Stay Melo. If I needed my fix for NA power, I'd grab the keys to the V10.
And then I got to drive the E46 M3 with the CSL airbox and Supersprint complete 63.5mm exhaust.
It was this close to having enough power, but it just wasn't enough.
In this upcoming Special Series, I will document my quest for optimizing stock displacement power out with Schrick's 288/280 cams and MAP engine tuning.
Cheers,

Pick your cam profiles.
I've curated 288/280 and 280/272 cams.
DLC coated rocker arms.
Schrick deems new rocker arms mandatory for their 288/280s. Considering the age of these engines, I'd recommend new rocker arms no matter what.
Compatible with OEM VANOS and oil lines.
Schrick is the only brand in the world with this design.
Made from chilled cast iron.
This metallurgical process is picker for its excellent properties against abrasion wear.
Installation Notes
Coming soon.
Tuning is required.
More information on tuning coming soon.

The best, from Germany.
Following a merger in 2006, AVL Schrick GmbH was born and became me the largest privately owned and independent engine, drive train development company.
Their experience spans since the 1960s as a leading OEM and motorsport supplie with solutions ranging from national amateur sports series to international GT classes, NASCAR and Formula 1.
To this day, Schrick is one of the few BMW M camshafts manufacturer in the entire world - and certainly the best.
