Wanting to put a set a Cams in my evo 8 mr,
Mods the car already has:
Evo 9 Turbo
1.5 Bar actuator
walbro pump
Hks hard pipe intake kit
3" Turbo back exhaust
3 port Boost controller

I have no idea what ones im after.

Im after response, and pick up. Its a daily on 98 not e85.

can someone point me to the correct thread or area to post in if this is incorrect to post here.

Thanks

 

While my setup is not exactly like yours, I have really enjoyed my GSC S1 cams. Very responsive and no need to upgrade the valvetrain.

Good luck.

 

If you end up in upgrading your turbo later in the year, I recommend doing it once. GSC S2 cams & get upgraded valvetrain, awesome setup.

 

Cosworth M2.

 

JUN 272s!! They were the best cams out of 3 brands that I installed on my Evo 8 with the same setup as yours. Oh how I loved them.

 

not the 9 turbo test but this will help you

kelford 272's perform well on the 8. i love them in my car even with my stocker 8 turbo.

 

from stock cams to my kelfords i lost about 200rpms of spool according to my graph but i really cant feel the difference. But my mid range to redline was where i feel the most difference. im sure with the 9 turbo it will be even better.

 

I know there's hks haters everywhere but the venerable 272 cam shafts are a solid upgrade if you're trying to maintain excellent street manners. I did jump to s2's for about 25-30ish hp gain

S2' are the norm now days but definitely in the range of agressive. And on an 8, more yet.

 

Thanks for all the Feed back,
I was thinkin 272's as it seems to get results. but so do the S1 & S2.
I guess ill just let my Mechanic decide.. just want the car to wake up...

 

S-2 = wake up and blow lines

Hks 272- coffee

 

Yeah im not a coffee drinker...
was thinking..... Kelford, GSC, or Cosworth
