Your setup is pretty simple. I would think you'd get good results with even CTR cams.

700+ and you're going to be pushing the **** outts that little 35R.

Keep it simple and it will last a long time, go crazy and your results will vary.

True, he does run 8's. But remember it's about the whole package. All the pieces need to work well together. Unless your building towards a more powerful setup in the future.

OP needs to call miller or Tony1 or Joe Simpson and figure out what's best for him.

You can make 700whp with oem GSR's. The turbo will determine how much power you'll make and how much boost it will need to make it. I haven't seen a 35r do 700whp. 650 maxed but haven't seen 700. Go bigger on the turbo and save the money from buying cams. CTR's are the biggest anyone should go unless they are racing professionally.

Why is that? Why would you not want to optimize your setup to make it as efficient as you can?

Default Re: Help me pick the cams for 700+whp

i currently have itr cams... so should i just keep running them?
Yes 700 is going to prob be past max on the 35r but im gonna push it to the max since its the turbo i already have. everything else on the car is built for more power but the turbo is the last thing Im going to upgrade. I just dont have 1500 or so to buy the turbo i need to go bigger right now so i will be the guinea pig on how much a 35r will actually make

Thanks for everyones imput and any other comments are much appreciated!

Skunk2 Tuner 1's or Pro1's will pick up power over your ITR camshafts guaranteed

IPG V1 Camshafts are badass but currently discontinued

Your power will increase, but if this is a street car and you care about idle quality, sound, etc. just keep the ITR cams.
