HKS 272i/264e Cam timing

Well I've just finished reading every thread about cams on this site and I can't find anyone who can recommend a great cam timing setting for the HKS 272/264 Cams.

I see that the 272/272 trick set up is -4/-1.5.

Could anyone recommend a 272/264 setting?

I am getting cams/gears installed tomorrow and would like to have them set at the best possible settings. At this point, Vishnu recommends -2,-2.

I see no reason to run a 272 intake and a 264 exhaust, you would wither run 264's
264 Intake-272 exhaust
or 272's which I did.

You want to all allow the hot exhaust gasses to get out as fast as possible.

yeah, let them out fast to spool up the turbine quicker... That's why I'm using the 272i/264e set up.

I thought Doug was your mechanic?. He should definately know as he had great success with this combo and kind of brought it up again. If not try Matt also, mdzricki77 I think on here.

Give Vishnu a call, I think Shiv is using this cam comb in his Silver shop Evo.

then how do they not know? Doug is the one who tried to make that combo a hit on this site. I know them and Doug does my work also.

Vishnu suggested this setting to me as well when I was inquiring. I say go with that. They specialize in 91 octane tunes. No, I dont have the 272I/264E combo yet, just 264's.

HELL, I just realized the date of the original post, how does the car run with those cams & where did you set them at? Have you had the car dyno'd since the cam install?
