264 or 272 intake cam?

Onefast99gsx · 03-27-2005

This is an opinion question and not a tech question so that's why i threw it in the parking lot. Can someone with experience tell me what they'd recommend for my PTE 50trim GSX? Straight 272 combo or 264/272?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Don't waste your time with the 264/272.

Thanks for your suggestions guys. It's always nice to have several people back up your own opinions to let you know you made the right decision.

Hi Enes, Yeah... I'd love to get those but everyone you ask says you gotta get cam gears to dial them in. Yet, the people who say that I don't even know if they've ever even tried them. I'd love to actually hear from someone who has run them to say otherwise.

The FP's you shouldn't have to dial in. That is the big thing about them vs. comp's. HKS or FP you should be within a few degrees if you just throw them in.

In my opinion, anytime you are working with a perfomance engine, it's worth the time and effort to degree the cams in correctly. HKS, Comp, FP, Crower, etc.

True. I would agree on that. I race a few times a year. I guess i'm just looking for something drop in and run the best it can for what it is and maybe sometime in the future get cam gears. Too tapped out right now. I've spent easily over 5k on upgrades already since i bought it in Aug.

For a drop in and go situation, I would use the HKS cams and nothing else.
