Excellent. Thanks for you help on the injectors. I just have to decide on who's gonna be doing the tuning then we can figure out which injectors to go with. Especially since i might be upgrading my turbo a little sooner then expected.

Cheers!

In doing more research I believe the GSC S2 will make about the same power as the Kelfords but with better spool characteristics.

You do realize that with the increased lift of either the GSC or Kelford cams, you will also need an upgraded valve train, right?

In my OP i did write that on my future mods were the GSC springs and retainers. Was there anything else in the valvetrain that i need to be upgrading?
