Revolver Cams vs. Kelford 272
Revolver Cams vs. Kelford 272
I'm really debating on what cams to get next. I currently have a set of Brian Crower 272s in my car and I'm going to stay with them until I get a bigger turbo and I'm really aiming for an FP red at this point as I'm very impressed with them on the price and power!
I don't take my car to the drag strip a whole lot and I'm wanting to build it for primarily street racing/roll racing. Stops, 20mph and 40mph rolls is what is most common in this area lol.
Basically I'd just like to know your opinions for which one will be the best for what I'm ultimately wanting. I think Revolver cams sound amazing and the lift is crazy on them which would be nice for topend power but I hear that Kelfords are one of the highest horsepower gainers on the market for Evos. What would you guys suggest I use!?

For the type of roll-on, midrange to upper midrange power that you seek, I would reconsider the FP Red choice. Instead, I would look for a more responsive turbo platform such as the BBK-Lite, or, the BBK-Full, especially if pumpgas is your main fuel.
Also, I wouldn't do too much cam, otherwise yo'll be having to power-brake it to build boost or you won't have enough lowend response. You probably wan't quick response, quick spool, minimal lag, and a cam that makes good midrange power. I'd say GSC S1's or HKS 272's with adjustable sprockets set to +1/-1.
Can you get E-85 in your area. With the BBK-Full on Corn Gas, you would have a monster.

There was definitely a noticeable power difference with the BC 272s. I like them for the price but they don't sound as aggressive as I was wanting aftermarket cams to sound.
There's not a lot of information on the Revolver cams and there's only two videos of them on the internet that I've been able to find. But out of those two vids I think they sound amazing! They're only a 264 cam I believe but they have a rediculous amount of lift and that's another reason I'm interested in them because I'm sure they'd be good for roll racing.
