Ah, dug this gem up: http://www.purcellperformance.com/Te...13%20FR-S).pdf

Those are Toyota's specs, which are not the 0.050" lift or whatever, but just compare with known specs for say 1NZs or something and you'll get the idea. I get the feeling that these are pretty conservative cams meant to maintain acceptable low end torque, because the duration is only a tiny bit higher than the 2GR-FSE (assuming their diagrams depicting cam duration are consistently drawn).

Now that I just saw that diagram again and remembered, the stock VVT system lets you open the intake valves 24 degrees ATDC! PLENTY of room for high duration, high overlap cams then
