Breaking the 500whp with E85 with 28-30PSI is my personal mark. For the time being, I plan on just rocking the stock IX turbo as the next logical step remaining stock-frame based would be the FP Red.

I have Kelfords on my IX and you can barely tell I have cams during idle. I love it. But all that is off topic since he is asking about how it matchs with the Red.

How do you like them? Seems like they are working out for you based on your times, but how about on pump gas?

Im really interested in seeing how these Kelford 272s do on DSM 4g63's as well.
Im sure the results will be pretty similar though,

I am going to ditch these Brian Crower 272s I currently have for a pair of the Kelford while the motor is being built...

Sounds like Kelford cams work the best but I am curious as to how revolver cams would perform? I know there are many skeptical experiences with them, but I am interested non the less.

Talking with a tuner in San Diego who is highly recommended. I told him I have a Red, and he told me to go with Kelfords.

Looks like Kelfords are the way to go but i would like to see some input from some FPr guys. I'm in the same situation here but looking to keep the stock turbo for a while. Looking to get something that will help me on the stock turbo and still be great once upgraded.
