johnd-mkiv Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Im looking into fitting a set of HKS cams what duration would you say will work best with a Powerhouse racing stage 1 turbo kit GT60 thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 What do you want from it? I have HKS 264/264 setup and gained 50hp up top but lost some low down punch, even then Ryan lowered my boost at low speed to get traction as there is still plenty.

gaz1 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 256/264 or 264/264 the choice is yours, but end of the day it depends what you want from your set up, whatever you choose you will still be behind me at marham:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probs the same mate dont really want all the power low down as there will be traction problems, im sure i read some where might have been one of your posts, about using a slightly larger exhaust cam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 CW did mention that my setup could prob benefit from a larger intake not exhaust, how this would affect the powerband I dont know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I'd go with the same as Wez, 264/264's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I'd go with the same as Wez, 264/264's. Thats what i run and am very pleased with the setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob wild Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Totally agree with the above. 264/264 with a PHR S1 works very well and pulls really well from low down plus i think my BL box is compensating for any lag that would be there TBH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnd-mkiv Posted February 3, 2008 Author Share Posted February 3, 2008 I take it they will need to be shimmed to suit when fitting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go with Wez's setup, often a little overlap is best on a high performance turbo engine, UK cams might be worth a look if you can pick up a set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucky40 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 just bought some jun cams for my bpu.....they are 256/264 but they are higher lift than the hks cams.......would be interesting to see how they differ if at all. hks 256= 8.7mm Jun 256= 9.3mm hks264=9.0mm jun264=9.3mm The price was very similar to the hks through nic and the availability was much better on the jun cams. Just another possibility John. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 The price was very similar to the hks through nic and the availability was much better on the jun cams. Thanks Ben The HKS cams are usually in stock in Japan, just happened to be out of stock when I placed your order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz1 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 interesting thread, would you say with a t67dbb, would 264/264 be better than say 256/264 cams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 interesting thread, would you say with a t67dbb, would 264/264 be better than say 256/264 cams 264/264 or even 272/272. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 When HKS tested the cams themselves they only paired the same duration together, ie 264/264 and 272/272, I wonder why they didnt test staggered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
