I'm currently running on K-tec cam. But I'm thinking of changing it.

What cam shall I choose for a T2/T25 turbo?
I'd like to use it mostly on road. So I do not want to build a car which only lives over 4500rpm.
I have seen that 285 cams are prefered.

Can you please send some power curves with different cams using such turbo?

Thanks all in advance!

Please-please-please! :D

Can someone please post some power curves with similar turbo and 285 cam?
And if anybody has such curve with K-tec cam it will be appriciated!

Thanks ;)

Of course fecking of course :D

Not much point in running anything hotter than a 270 on a small turbo, thus probably easier to stick with what's already in situ, as I can't see anything else giving a fantastic gain.

T2/T25 is that small?

Yes Jimmy thats small... but ideal for what you want the car for, fast road use. I agree with Mart on cam....
