According to a thread by one of the sponsors, the cams are fine. The weakness is that the heads are restrictive and need to be worked.

I think I'd wait and see what the professionals experience first.

They only work if you buy the HKS stroker kit. They put recesses in the stroker kit pistons for the added lift. If you put the cams in an otherwise stock motor bad things would happen. The FA20 just has very little piston to valve clearance.
