Cosworth Vs. HKS
sry im in the same situation too. im debating to either get cams for my ix or just trade the 9 turbo to get the fp green. i think the fp green is more bang for the buck . am i not right?
Almost 2 grand for 30whp? Thats up for you to decide. If you're going to spend 2 grand on a turbo only, might as well go alil more for a larger more efficient unit.
My mods consist of Cobb AP, Cobb TBE w/ HFC, Megan o2 housing, Cobb Air filter, HKS 272 Cams, ARP Headstuds, AMS Intercooler and LICP, Walboro 255.
Tune is set at 22 psi.
The first plot was with all the parts installed prior to the tune, and then the higher one is obviously the numbers after the tune...tune gained about 75whp @ X on graph #2.

Cosworth 272 M2's do not require valvetrain upgrade under 8000rpms. We have tested them on many cars. 11.7-11.9's in the 1.4 mi on 93 octane and TTP Engineering reflash.
I would pass on the HKS. No one uses them, lift is relatively low. More power can be extracted using Cosworth M2's.
We have COSWORTH units in stock ready to ship same day as order and at the best pricing available.

the exact same results i have found while tuning...
cosworth make more power and torque than the S1's and more power and a bit more torque than the HKS cams. They just arent as aggressive. All the cars that i have tuned them in do not have upgraded valvetrain either, we only rev to 7k or so while tuning.
you pretty much cant go wrong with these cams when it comes to output results
+1 on this one...
