Since you have a nine you might want to do some more research. Some of the manufactures have had some breakage on the 9s. I know for a fact the fp 4r are pretty decent in a nine and have not been on the list of broken cams.

I've been tuning cars with these Kelford's left and right, seems to work on every setup, not just big turbos, always good performance

I've heard the Cosworth M2s are similar to the Kelford 272s and was wondering if that is correct. I am going to be upgrading to an FPRed soon and am currently running the M2s. If they are similar to the Kelfords then I won't worry about cams at the moment.

Thanks for any information, and this thread is great! I just found the thread and read every 3rd to 5th page or so but didn't see much comparative info regarding Cosi's.

No the M2s are a bit milder. They are more like the middle man between GSC S1 and GSC S2. The M3s are more like a GSC S2. There is not much thats compairable to a kelford 272.

IMO the best two cams on the market are GSC S2s and Kelford 272s
