you who gets so excited about meets is the only strange one

 

 

i felt a little lonely being the only one without cams. Thanks in part to the severe PEER PRESSURE ill be ordering some now!!! LOL! CHeck out that sick pic of Ali my GF took while we were on 101. His car looks like its floating while the tree's are going past at like 85mph!!

 

yea man you gotta hop up on the engine mod bandwagon. Your car looks nice now, time to make it FASTAH!

 

Heard anything on the Helix Hollow cams?? Gruppe-S has them for $399 shipped right now, Supposedly they made about 10hp more then the HKS, but thats vendor talk so who knows. I shouldnt need anything more then the Cams, Gears, and a Fuel Pump right??

Ultimately its a daily driver, it doesnt really get tracked due to having the time so thats my main concern. Being able to drive it comfertably. Ali has the 272/264 HKS setup which ive been in his car and love. But if i can get something a lil more aggressive without scarificing much for cheaper then im all for it.

 

haha wow ive never even thought of that before! (seriously) thats funny.....she'll come around... shes shy... if you couldnt tell from all of the damn talking she does... i can never get her to stop talking.. she'll cut the **** haha

 

If you dont already have a TBE do that first. Then a drop in, Then either headers for some more top end(with a little sacrifice down bottom), or just do cams(gears aren't a neccessity but good) and absolutely a pump. Then of course, a tune.

as far as getting something more aggressive, the price on the cams really doesn't change much if at all. You just cant go too aggressive without a standalone. i'd say the 272 pair or 264/272 like alis got would be ideal. It depends where you want your power. The 272 pair will give you nice spool and top end. The 264/272 combo will give you good spool but better low/mid range.

oh and if you want to set a day to install em lemme know =o)

 

Yah ive got a full 3" TBE already with Test Pipe, HKS RS Intake, IC Pipes, Xede running a V360 map, So ill order all the 272's, Pump and probably the gears just to get them done and out of the way. Hey if you can do them then why the heck not set a day!!!!

 

oh yah and Tubular Headers sitting across the hall waitting to be installed.

 

The headers would be easiest to do on my lift at home. The cams...actually doing them both the same day would make the most sense...I'm not familiar with xede, could you just get a different map to use with the new cams?

 

Looked like a nice little meet....let me know when you guys get together again.

 

Yah id just run the same map Ali is running on his Xede. Till i get it custom tuned. You got a IM name or something so we can stop filling up this thread?

 

What about headstuds?

 

no no i started this thread, keep it going!!!!1OnE!1

 

headstuds would be a good idea. If your not gonna go crankin up the boost that much they wouldn't be that necessary. Definately wouldn't hurt though. It would be a good idea to get a custom tune as soon as you possibly can to get all the power out of those mods. Thats a good amount of **** goin in. A custom tune for it would be key.
