Celica that's sounds like fun for sure. And yes the wiked white 2g is literally a dream car. Lol spare tire will be on the trailer. His goal now is getting rid of 10lbs of wiring.

Aaron we would appreciate any knowledge you can bring to this thread about things like that for sure.

Here are some pics of the pg trip mine is the red 2gb carbon hood

Here's one up for debate. What cams should I run in this settup? I have a 3582 and will most likely end up with a hta 3586 or gtx wheel. So being that I can flow 62.5 lbs/min now and may be able to flow 75. I feel like I am inbetween cams. I am pretty set on kelfords or gsc cams, but what one will better suit me? I will be reving in the 9ish area.

[turbotalon1g]

I'd run a 280 or GSC S3, but to be honest I haven't seen any testing between the 2 to say that the difference is worth the worry about power.
Both are quality so whatever you are more comfortable with/get a better price on.

Reck, I'm at work but I have the 2014 NHRA rulebook downloaded, I will post it up here for others when I get a chance.

With those size turbos you guys will need it.

lol thanks for the nice words of optimism. I talked to kevin kiggly today about it and he recommends going with a kelford 280 or 288. The only thing he was unsure about was my punishment manifold. He is using kelfords this year btw and he is also going to be running a 2.0 fwiw. So anyways back on topic I got to thinking devin shultz is running the same manifold as me so I think I will try and get him on the phone for a bit to see if he has tried any combo cams like the 288 276 etc. we all know the intake can handle a large cam it's my exhaust that could be in question.

[Mark Leasure]

You can't go wrong with either cam. I run gsc s3, it works for me. I know kiggly was reving that 2.3 to the moon, 2.0 would make more sense for him.

[dsmreck]

mark could you dive into the intake mani/exhaust mani/turbo setup on the s3 with spool and rpm range please:) yes kiggly is awesome he was telling my about the cam centerlines throughout his rpm range with that mivec head and it's plain awesome. at some points it's equivalent to 2 teeth off haha. talking about 89deg to 130-135deg. He too was talking about the cam test that spoolin dub has mentioned and said he didn't see any reason at least for me to even consider a 272 with the 280 being 200ish on spool and big hp up top. good info I thought i'd share.

if anyone has input on trans at this point I am open to hear discussion on that. So far my peak interest is a jacks 2.2hd. when I called sheep the guy said not unless I already had a one of theirs, he also said use john or tim and not jack, competition or? either way we are all going manual trans so yes we already know we are doomed just looking for anything that may help...

[Goat Blower]

Yeah, Shep doesn't do DSM trannies anymore unless he knows you, or you send a blank check.

[CornFed2.4]

Andre's car got a lot of my parts. Hatch/lexan, hood, turbo.

I say go auto. Screw shifting.

Cars look good btw;)

[dsmreck]

thanks nick and yeah he is completely against an auto at this point, as for me I know I should go auto, but i'm most likely going manual…I honestly don't want to be the guy who turns down good advise but we are kinda set on not going auto yet.
