I need to find where to get Cams reliably and with good specs for a turbo setup. Good head work will make that turbo spool a lot quicker and you can rev higher with the right hardware. I agree valves probably arent needed but Im doing bigger valves as well.

Let me know if you need help sourcing parts. Ive dealt with a lot of companies and found some decent deals.

Denisst > Going to put a lot of care into the machining aspect of the build. I'm not holding back going to get everything done right the first time. As for the Crower Rods, they are custom made aren't they? I wouldn't mind Crowers actually.

Bullfrog > I drove really slow, didn't want to get into a head on and get crushed but that 400lbs beast. It felt like having another person or two in the back. Other than that it was fine.

Ericy > Yea i'll definitely be sending you pms here and there. Also noticed the post you made earlier about parts stores! fing02.gif

RedZ > What KFX Cams? I know nothing about those... Also I sent you a PM.

yup they're custom stuff, i sent you details

indeed the gt35r is a good turbo, a bit laggy for my taste but it depends on what you want to do with the car ;-)

The KFX cams I've got and have posted about. do some searching.

There is a thread in the KFX subforum looking for someone to do a before and after TUNED dyno on the cams, full details are in that thread.

i know redz has regrinds just never heard of them as TBD's before... i dont think searching TBD would come up with many results...

instead of wasting a post saying search u should just have saved urself some time and just typed "regrinds"

no offense, its just that "search" is a waste of space and if u had posted relevent info it could potentially help others in there searches... for example now if someone searches regrinds they may come up with this thread pointing them towards TBD; showing that they are both the same...
after searching for redz thread they are colt cams, we will have another option through bhurlin of KFX soon? or did redz get custom regrinds through colt cams that KFX is going to sell to us with the option of a core charge?

Never heard of TBD's.

Mine are Colt Cams, done through KFX. he's got them on his website.

You could also look at the post in the KFX section looking for someone to dyno them...

thanks for clarification... my posts never come out sounding right...

so basicly colt cams is a supplier of KFX (no more stupid questions out of me)


uhhh back on topic...

arnt u gonna need a clutch?
also i would throw money into a p&p IM before the crank (maybe get KFX's job with the core charge as well as the regrinds), as it sits the IM is gonna be a big bottle neck...
maybe u can get a deal on the P&P IM, regrinds, and the MS setup!
we need somone with all 3 to show the possible gains!
