I have gsc s2's and it's very choppy. Maybe a gsc s1 will work or like people said the hks 264s. I've heard hks 272s be choppy and smooth it's really all in the tune.

My Bf272 cams idle at 900 rpm. I have a video proof. Was it chopy .. yeah haha

I think s1's with with an idle of 1k and raised timing and they will idle perfectly fine.

Keep in mind -- your EXHAUST is just a big factor in all this. I bet on the stock exhaust youd never hear my bf272s...

You will love them; they really wake up the OEM turbo.

You have a similar set up to mine. What numbers did you put out with those cams on your set up?

Yup buschur are lopey as hell. Had the hks 280's prior, really liked the sound of those. I'd say s1's or hks 272's.

So how do the s2's sound?
