So i have seen the profile on the GSC S1's and they are rated as 268 and of course HKS 272 are...272's has anyone rated them against eachother? I am in the middle of a decision and i can't find anythig directly comparing the two against eachother. Anyone have experience with these cams comparativly?

 

I dont have experience comparativly but I had the HKS 272s in my V///. I thought they gave me a nice power band with some nice power. What do you have an V/// or a IX? For the IX the S1 I think are great cams.

 

Brand Name Spec. Cam Duration Cam Lift
These are the specs of both:

HKS Intake 272 10.8mm
HKS Exhaust 272 10.2mm
GSC S1 Intake 268 10.5mm
GSC S1 Exhaust 266 10.5mm

Just look at the lift as well.

 

Yeahhhhhh after a bit of higher learning (AKA i read so old posts) it seems to be that regardless of the lift the S1's seem to do alot better then the HKS with better mid-range duration and make for a faster spool and a better set-up for the mean time as i still have a stock turbine (obviously i want to change my turbine....i am just not rich ).

 

i have the S1's in my IX...and i love them to bits and pieces!

 

Yeah just got done talking to TKMotorsport.....really good price especially for the performance. S1's for me!! Come onnnnnnnnnnnnn tax return.

 

i also have the s1's in my IX and i love them!

 

From what I've read, the GSC S1s seem to idle better too.

 

if you plan on staying in the stock turbo to fp green range i would go with s1's they will be more responsive, if you plan on going bigger then that i would look into the hks or even a set of s2's

 

well.... that solved my problem as well.. i was debating between the 2 for my 9.. s1's are what im going with

 

I'm also debating GSC S1 vs. Brian Crower 272s. I won't spend the $ on the HKS...

 

GSC S1's will give you GREAT mid range torque, on a stock turbo with just a drop in and turbo back with those cams, I'm conservatively putting down 345awtq at like 4k (I have to check my Dynosheet)! S1's are just awesome. . .

 

I guess it's time to change the "Drives" part of your avatar then I'd love to see the graph.

 

Yeah I did too.... Tk deals on the GSC S1 are insane... Uncle Sam needs to hurry up.

 

Haha I think Everyone on EvoM who wants cams is sporting wood for their tax return
