Cams for High HP car?
well im almost done with my build and i am trying to research cams for myself. the car will be a SFWD/true street car. everytime i try to search cam options on this site i get only cars that are looking for a cam for 300whp with a stock head. my setup is a lot more complex so i need to see what cams to research.
my setup is a B16 head, port and polished, oversized valves, springs and retainers, edelbrock intake manifold, top mount turbo manifold with a gt4088R turbo. my power goals are around 800whp..
any opinions on cams i can research and will fit me best for my setup? any opinion will be appreciated...

You are wrong. The Skunk 2 Pro 1's are the best out there right now from everything I've seen. I picked up 65 whp WITH 3 LESS PSI when I swapped them in over my Type R cams. They are great. I have a write-up on here somewhere if you search my name in the Forced Induction forum.

The Blox B's ans Skunk tuner 2's has also been the hot tickets with mid to high HP potential builds. Most of the people on HT crying Pro1's have never used them in a turbo setup but have read that a guy who was a friend with another guys uncle, used them and they worked lol. I am almost finshed with my setup that will be using skunk 2 tuner 2's on a topmounted sp6765 .

Re: Cams for High HP car?
Because not many can afford teh shocking sticker price of the pro series, that's why people get teh tuner series which have way less potential than the pro series... Dude with the tuner 2s... Try swappin in a set of pro series either 1s or 2s and watch the gains shOw for themselves... Tuner series skunk 2 cams are very noobish...

Mid range, smaller turbo = CTRs or Tuner 1s
High rev, larger turbo and lots of boost, PRO 1s

Re: Cams for High HP car?
problem with the pro1's is valvetrain wear. there a very wild cam and unless its an all out drag car not worth it if your going to be daily driving and wearing out rockers. Rockers arent cheap thats for sure

Re: Cams for High HP car?
Not to thread jack guys, but what would be an ideal seat pressure (psi) valve spring to run with the Pro1's? I'm considering these cams for the TS build.
