gsc 280 cams

 

from what i have heard if you get the gsc or hks cams you dont need new springs or retainers but i have heard that it is also a good idea to get head studs when doing cams since your motor is all apart and everything so that is what i am going to do, cams and headstuds at the same time. headstuds are a good failsafe for later when you add more boost to your engine.

 

Do you know of anyone close to where I live that can help me install some cams when I get them???

Also, if I got BC 272 cams would I need to upgrade the springs and retainers or are the stock ones ok?

Don't you have to remove the head inorder to install head studs???

 

cams first but let me know when your ready for a meth kit...

 

CAMS

 

Isnt that's too big for stock turbo?

Anyways, get cams AND alky (if u can afford both at once), otherwise, go cams THEN alky

 

you might as well do the head studs with the cams...hell whats 85 bucks to know its right and handle whatever ya throw at it.

 

I suggest no arp headstuds, huge waste of money, how many stock headstuds have you seen fail???

 

gainsville... hmm.. couple choices..

i lived in tampa for a couple years so i know a couple shops there... i think thats a little over an hour drive...

or you could go to ttp in orlando... they specialize in evo's ( first choice) if something happens, i can garentee that theyll help you out and not **** u over.. i plan on getting my gsc from them and doing the install and tune for those and my alky kit that is on the way... need to give them a buzz and check out some numbers soon.

or if ya message "sleet" hes up in jacksonville, good guy, im sure he can help you out.. i know his first choice is billet design because its local shop down here in south florida..


honestly... i would buy the alky... buy the cams... then have them installed and tuned at one time... cause your just gonna spend 200-300$ a second time to get tuned.. might as well as do it once and save some money..


hit me up if ya need anything, i'm not a pro, but i'm familiar with this topic


cheers!

 

Thanks for the recommendation.

GSC 280 280 cams are pretty nasty. I am really liking these units. We can install them and custom tune your Evo which it sounds like is your best bet.

I have personally installed 81 sets of Evo cams. One more set would be no problem.

 

Just pmed you TTP

I went with Helix V2 272 cams from Gruppe-s. I don't plan on buying any head studs or valve train because I don't plan to rev past 7000rpms.

 

The question was which will make "more power" and a car running alky will walk a car with cams all day long the hotter the better. The beating gets even worse when you are limited to 91 octane for both cars.

 

well I never run on 91 oct and I do plan to get alky one day. Alky is more $$$ and I got a killer deal on the cams.

 

thats cool Im just saying another VIII with meth will embarass you in a dragrace.
