Cam Specs Thread - Updated
I love the car, but am do not know anything about mechanics.
I want to gain some power, and i do not have any mods on the car.
Are they bolt on or do i haveto change something else too.
Thank you very much again
OK. You are on the stock VIII turbo. No issues. I assume that you have a shop with EVO expertise nearby, right? Cams are not a simple "drop in and drive" part as you will need a tune without question.
To be honest, I do not know!
I would try to buy a 300- 400$ FMIC, cams... and I do not know other things..
I know a bigger turbo would be great but I do not have enough money for the moment!

1. How do I plan to use the car?
2. How much am I willing to spend?
3. Do I need to build the bottom end?
There is too much to learn and there is no one clear answer to the solution. There are people that have been on this forum for years and there is a plethora of knowledge here.
On the topic of cams, like I said, the GSC S2s or Kelford 272s will be just fine for about 80% of the guys on this forum.
On the topic of tuning, if you are unable to get tuned where you are, I recommend contacting Tom (TSCOMPUSA) and have an e-tune done.

No problem, my friend. This is what the forum is all about.
As for pistons.. Their future depends on your tuner.

Hks 272 are really mild cams comparing to kelfords and other modern camshafts. They will give moderate gains and feel much smoother in low rpm everyday driving. Kelfords 272 will be rougher at adle and low rpm, but you'll gain more peak power and torque everywhere, with little to no downsides at low rpm.

So which of the two is the best for daily driven and also i use it for drag racing? Kelford or HKS
