custom are $575 ish but it depends on the blank. dont expect to call them up order custom cams and have them next week though! he grinds in batches and if you want higher than normal lift he may have to go thru a couple batches to find one that can be ground to the specs you need. it may take a couple months.

You are right on the blanks and it took me 4-5 months to get my cams. However, mine were more than 575 and I didn't have to pay full price. I think they are 800 for a regular customer but not 100% sure. The cams I'm running are more aggresive than JUNs fyi but I'm not giving out the specs. Not sure that Gregs wants them out on the market right now. sorry...
Stock is good for all the hp you can throw at it.

I switched from the kelford 272 to the new gsc s2. I had some headwork done at the same time but I LOVE the way the car drives now. The kelfords were a little rough to drive on in my car. Weird idle sometimes, midrange felt soft. Switched to the s2's and the car drives like a stock car again. Smooth idle, off idle throttle feels nice and smooth and the car trapped mid 140s on a very conservative tune. Mind you it was a 6262 at 40psi on a quartermaster but as stock driving as it can get for 700+hp.

Great Thread, just finished reading. I guess im on the late train, but GREAT work AMS! So this might be why i see new greddy easy cams go on Ebay for about what one might pay for an intake kit?
How much for the hks cams? lol

i have the fp4rs in my IX and love them switched from cossi m2's.....the 4rs are more on the aggresive side and i pickd up alot of midrange and top end power thinking about eventually going to 5rs when i get headwork done

Hi guys,a month has passed since ive installed a GSC S2 camshafts and i just wonder why my turbo still kick in late around 3,700rpm and when the turbo kicks in, ive a massive knock (60~80) shown on my PFC commander.
Why?
Btw, ive not re-tune my ride yet...
Is this normal? or should i advance or retard the cams deg or just follow according to GSC spec's in order to achieve low end & mid range response???

Anyone knows what is the best setting for GSC S2 cams on stock turbo in order to achieve great low and mid end torque and hopefully improve turbo spooling.
Or should i just follow the cams setting spec's from GSC for my S2 cams?
Thanks
