    I want either the E303 or the TFS stage 1 for my soon to be twin turbo setup....I know there are much better cams out there...but I am trying to stay somewhat smog legal internally on my setup...so please tell me which would be a better choice....will be eventually running TFS twisted wedge heads as well....,.

    I would keep the stock cam. It allows superb drivability and stealth. You also won't have to sweat emissions testing. Check out my times with the stock cam and the same heads as you. I really should be in the mid-10's, but I need more time on the track and better traction.

    i would run the stock cam, but if you decide you have to have a new cam and can't afford a custom ground turbo cam, then put in the stage 1 cam.........should get ya goin......i have my stock cam still in my twinturbo'd car.........hotwheels of turborides.com

    The stock camshaft is underrated. Keep it and spend the $ on something else like dyno time.

    erll if you can afford a tt setup you shouldnt skimp on the cam. get someone to grind one. its not too much $.



    And Steed93. . .those are damn goods times and traction is definetly what you need. I mean geez trapping at 130 mph is no easy task. SO job well done.

    Thanks for the comment. I ran that time on my 3rd trip to the race track this year. I definitely need more time behind the wheel and some better slicks.
