Gsc s2 or kelford 272.

I have s2 with a fp red and see 30 psi by 4700 rpm. And pulls to redline [8300] rpm

Depends on how rough you want the idle to be. The GSC S2's have a very rough, attention grabbing idle in the Evo 8.

My car never stalls either, drivability wasn't what I was referring. Some people simply don't like the rough/choppy idle once they have to deal with it every day for a month or two.

"im beginning to slowly build for track season next year"

Care to share details of the build? Could be something in there that may point you towards other cams
