I'm currently running HKS 272s on the stock turbo and love my powerband but I'm going to put a 280 exhaust cam in this weekend to see what happens. 272/280? anyone want to take a guess as to what will happen? More hp? less tq? hold better boost up top? etc...

I would go with the 264cams, for stock like drivability and low/mid response for a street daily driven car.

S2s and Kelford cams are imo the two best cams on the market. I use HKS because I don't want to upgrade my valvetrain!

Two reasons. Want to see how much power I can make on a stock turbo with mild cams apposed to aggressive ones and I just don't see spending 400 on springs when I can spend that 400 on something that will give me power. I'll get them prob this fall when I upgrade to the HTA73 or Red
