Cam Settings; Road Racing, Time Trials
To answer the question before it gets asked, yes I have searched the forum quite extensively for this answer.
I am running hks 272/272 with hks adjustable cam gears. I am curious as to what settings the road racers out there are running? I tried the -3/-3 and have not really seen that much improvement over pre-adjustment settings.
Most of the threads on here talk about low end, or drag applications.
Any road racers out there care to shed some light on their settings?
I do not care whether the idle is smooth, or lopey, my main concern being most performance possible out of the cam setup.

With stock turbo running high boost it's good to avoid overlappage, maybe delay the intake 2 degrees. Overlap is bad at high rpms and small turbo. 21 psi probably won't be a problem though. I would ask that razorlab guy, he's got the experience for moderate boost, stock turbo road racing applications
