Currently ive got a set of 264/272 cams on my 50 trim set up which made 370hp @ 20psi at DSG tuning. I was wondering if i should upgrade the cams, and if so, to what ones? How much of a power gain could i expect? obviously with a retune.

 

what brand do you have in there right now

 

I used hks272's on both and achieved 500 whp with the mods in my sig. Are you on a flash or stand alone?

 

you could go GSC1's which are the cams I was going to switch to, seem to provide the most power of the cams available that I have read so far.

 

I think the combo is sufficient for the time being. However a 272 intake cam would have been better. Your best bet is to see how it carries you on the dyno.

 

I'd definitely go with full 272's or S1's. I had 272's on my car (see mods below) and made good power. Stepped up to the S2's (planned on bigger turbo swap) and they provide high RPM punch but are a bit too aggressive for daily driving IMHO.

 

Im 99% sure they are HKS cams. I made 370hp on them.
I am on a flash, the car is tuned by Matt at DSG (dent sport garage in norwood mass)

If i were to change cams, what do you think i would make for power gains?

 

I currently run Brian Crower 272's on my Peakboost 35R setup, and they made very good power. If your going to be daily driving this car, I would stick with a nice set of 272's..just my input, take it as you wish!

 

Bump that intake cam up to a 272 and you should be golden

 

I run HKS 280 cams (+2/0) on my 50 trim setup and I am very happy with how they performed over the HKS 272s that I used to run. I lost a little bit of spoolup (~100RPM) with the 280s, but gained power on the topend. I'll see if I can dig up a dyno chart to show the difference... Having said that, I am starting to look for a set of cams that will improve on the 280s. I have a built valvetrain, so there should be more options out there for me.

I had HKS 272s on my 57trim.....its was great.

 

Curious as to what boost level, whether 93 + Meth amd on what dyno.

 

Change your intake cam to a 272.

 

Why only 20 psi? Go with the 272 intake cam as mentioned. Do you want more power down low or up top? If up top go 280's.

 

272 HKS
My car made 415whp on pump gas @ 23 psi 2.0L

With the stroker 2.3 I made 432 but with 428 tq
