I was wondering what the most agressive cam you can use with the stock turbo?
I love the sound of the 280's I've seen on Youtube and was wondering can I do this... I want that Brap...Brap...Brap....Brap

 

u can get that lope with 272's which i have. its just how u tune it. 280's are kinda big for stock turbo imo. the 272's are better all around.

 

272s they add plenty of sound 280s r big for stock

 

The lope really depends on the actual cams specs. My BC's hardly lope at all but driveability is 100% of what it is stock. If I simply turned the idle down a little I can get them to be super lopey

 

264's, staggered or 272's. 280's will pull harder up top but you will sacrifice your low end powerband. So daily driving it won't nearly be as fun. There's a dyno graph out there proving this (280 vs. 264/272). It's also recommended to upgrade the springs and retainers for the 280's. Stock turbo looses its efficiency after 7k anyways.

 

You dont need 280's for stock turbo. Do HKS 272's or GSC S1's/


You CAN run some 280's like HKS's fine without springs and retainers.

 

gsc s1's

 

What cam would be the most uncomfortable for a stock turbo...JUN 272s. Definitely.

Which would I get? Cosworth 272s.

HKS 272s do sound very "lobey", but you're getting cams for power, not sound.

 

i liked my compcams too. it made a good whp.

 

Well I do not want to give up any power soo it looks like I should look for some 272's.. I have some used hks 264's I havent put on the car yet soo if anyone wants to trade... let me know

 

Why do you think you will give up power with cams?

I am running the GSC S2 cams on a stock turbo and I picked up ~50 whp to redline.

Idling at 1k rpm they are lopy but I have no stall issues.

 

I run a 272/280 combo on a TME 6.5 RS and it pulls hard past 7k

 

Any vids or sounds of it idling w/ the s2's? I thought about goine w/ s2's but got a great deal on my setup.

 

I'm gonna be going with S2's as well on the stock turbo....for now. I'll be upgrading snails in a few months but I'm getting a good deal on the S2's now lol. But, I have Supertech duals in the mail to get ready for em
