Hey guys, looking into getting some GSC S1 cams due to the cost saving of being able to use stock vale train. Do people think they would work well with a Tomei 20G? I have also been looking at Kelford 272s but does the gain they give warrant the extra money on springs and getting them installed?

Also, is this an accurate depiction of the S1s at idle?

S1's on a 20g will work out very well. look for gains across the rpm band and a good 30-50hp increase in power... I personally would not run the S2 or kelford's 272 on a 20g but many have. look for 5-10hp increase but only in the 5k plus rpm range.

yes that is pretty close to what they sound like with a bit of tuning they can smooth out a bit more.

 

Ohhh helllsss yeah it'll be nice. . . .and the idle is perfect, not too rough, not too wimpy. . .I love my Gen 2 S1's. . .

 

I actually ask because I enjoy the rougher idle :P.

So your saying the S1s should get me more power and a better curve then the bigger cams?

 

Mate love my GSC S1's, with GT Pumps 20G.

Here's my idle.

 

im a big advocate of the S1 cams.....

we will be doing a back to back test shortly to show everyone why we like them so much

Yep, that video is right on. I have been very happy with the S1 cams.

 

Mmmmm love that idle.

From someone in the know, is it worth my time and money using adjustable cam gears on the S1s?

 

ok you win the best idle in my book.

 

WOW! I am really excited to see the results of this! Please do it on a IX

 

Any updates with the S1 testing?

 

coming, maybe one night this week...

I have been telling Greg we'd do it for weeks now, its my fault, we have been SUPER busy with shop work.

plus, last time we did a dyno test comparison (for the perrin intake) and it worked well, they sold out of them and we cant get them ourselves hee he

 

Chad i figured you lost those cams i sent up there for you to test with... it's only been what... 2 months?

oh don't worry about us running out of cams... we got plenty on the shelf and more billets ready to grind. :-)...

 

ive ben thinking about S1's for my IX....but i want a bigger cam because ill be going with either a 30r kit or the Red.....S2's maybe??

do they have a nice lope?

 

i just got s1's on my evo i love them thumbs up!
