Kelford 280's too much for a bolt-on car w/fp green?

alright so this is my second evo. my old one had kelford 272's and it was really strong and i loved it with my bolt-ons and stock 9 turbo.

my new car is an evo 8. it has a 3in turboback (test pipe) and O2 dump housing. short route ETS IC pipes. ETS intake.

right now the car has a stock 9 turbo on it. but i was thinking about getting the new FP green.

im going to stick with Kelford for cams, i just want to know if the 280's are too big. thanks.

I would go with the 272s for street use. 280 is pretty aggressive, and not needed for a mild setup like yours.

Good luck

def stay 272. 280 is high rpm cam and more drag oriented. For the Rpm range the green operates in stay 272.
