It depends on what your goal for the car is. 280 will give you a little more top end where as 272 will be a little of bottem and top. Just do some research and see what you want.

I just got the 280s. I've read you can run stock valve train with the 280s and most would rather pickup the 280 in the long run anyway.

I am running the GSC S2's.

Here is my review.

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=314969

The specs on them I think are 11mm lift 272in and 274ex.

Very nice.

I think that you will like the 280's from you choice best.

I am using the Helix 272's and I love them... they make it a little lopey which makes a good sound, but when properly tuned I love the feel of 272's under boost...
