so there are three things left on my list of mods that id like to do.
1. electronic boost controller
2. tubular header
3. a better cam
Ive heard mixed reviews on the 272 cam. I really dont want to kill my low end tourqe, which is what i really like about the setup im using. the low end tourque is great. Ive been told a 268I/? degree cam would be best for all around driving. Im not sure what the exhaust degree is was.
any thoughts on cams guys?
Im wondering if going with the 272 would be ok since im using a k24 turbo, I might still have pretty decent low end tourque, idk.
oh and on another note, I turned my boost up to 20 today just to see how she handled....
WOW WOW and oh yeah...WOW. the car pulled like a f@#king freight train! the boost dropped back down to around 16 by redline though. I'm not sure if thats because I have a crappy boost controller or the fact that I was a tad out of the k24's efficiency range![Wink](https://www.audiworld.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

From what I hear, 268/260 is a good cam.
Some people who have the 272 Blau cam and like it. I have no BTDT with that cam.
I have the Schrick 272 cam and I find it is a bit annoying...
Remember not all cams of the same size are created equal.
