Well I ordered my cams today. It will take about two weeks to make. I decided to go with a set of 268/268 cams. Integral has been amazing, Im not lying when i say that I have asked them over a thousand questions. I will keep you guys posted, Im not yet sure if im going to be installing the cams right away, or wait until i rebuild the engine and do it then.

marko, those cams sound nice, how aggresive are they?
edit: just read the 1st post, they sound great. How long until you get them?

i'll be watching this thread, depending on you numbers i will most likely order the same cams, 268/268 sounds like a very good all around cams for turboed engines, hopefully these cams will be as good as the evos 272/272 cams. I know that ams evo is runing 272/272 cams and put down a little over 1000awhp. Its good that you are not running a higher lift cam, great for a n/a engine, but it is better for turboed engine to have more duration with a smaller lift, than a higher lift and short duration.

It dont think its possible to get 1000whp, out of our car. (traction issues aside). Also I didnt want my car to just have power between like 6000-7000rpms. 272/272 is alot for our car, it will pretty much deminish most of the low-end torque. It all comes down to what you want to do with your car. Since my will still be a daily driver, I was looking for the topend power, but i alos want my car to have some low-end kick as well.

yeah there is no way the fs will hold that much besides the 4g63 is by far more superb engine than ours. but having the high duration you will see some good low end power but you'll really see it really kick in around 4500-7500+ all depending on your set up of course. Just as a personal note, upgraded cams and stock valve train set up=bad situations in the future.

I'm glad you decided to do what i suggested and talk to the people that make these things for a living. I was going to do an integral custom setup myself, but the Pro is on the way out. I just picked up a CX7 last night so I have to officially start "growing up". All that really means to me is wait another year or two and buy another MSP gut it, rebuild the engine with forged parts and get really serious with a nasty weekend warrior machine!
I will soon have data on the exact specs for the twiggy bumpstix to contribute.
I had a complete cam doctor cam profile done and is on its way here.
