Is it ok to put HKS 280's while having a stock turbo? and can I run the same springs, retainers and valves.

yeah. but ive been debating cams myself for a long time. im not so sure i can handle listening to the idle. for a while its cool. and i may be able to get usto the 272's cuz there not to bad. but 280's i dont think i could handle, there pretty lopey

Yeah its fine to run them. especially if you get the valve train to support it.

Just get tuned.

Good Luck

I wouldn't do 280s w/o upgraded valvetrain...just my 2 cents

HKS cams do not have a high lift so stock valvetrain is fine. Stock turbo's are out of its efficiency range above 7500 anyway.

You can play with different cam gears settings to smooth out the idle a bit on 280's. But it'll always be somewhat lopey.
