Cam For turbo Build

[ser1992]

Im rebuilding an 885 head, and the time has come to determine what to do with the cam. I can either refurbish my stock one, buy a new stock one, or for about the same price get a 272 from IE.

does anyone have any experience/insights on what I should do here?

(my build plans: Revshift full manifold, HX35, IE HD rockers, O-ring block, goetze head gasket, MS2 from whodwho)

Im looking for about 375-400hp

Seen bimmerheads 274 dual pattern first hand, its quite good.

Also bumping this to see other options.

There is the PPF Z45 turbo cam I believe was supposed to be good. Also expensive but I can't find a site for it.

A couple more cams below from catcams specifically for turbo. I need to research more to determine what cam would be good for the application.

That appears to be for the m20b20, here a usa dealer of that stuff. 400$ a cam for the m20b25.

I've read plenty of people in sweden making up to 650 WHP with this cam coupled with proper setup cam timing.

The next turbo build I do will definitely be utilizing this cam if funds allow for it.

The Z45 cam has been a goto for years. The catcams options are good as well.

Can anyone back up the vac cam?

bimmerheads 280/274 all the way!

609$ wow. Ill be going with a 284/280 bimmerheads cam :D.

Nevermind...the Bimmerheads 272 is from a billet core.

Get an Ireland regrind, I love mine and it's under 200. I pretty much kept a 276 profile and gave it more lift, since you're more choked in mass flow with boost.

I'll be contacting Bimmerheads when I get a cam. For now, I'm too lazy to pull the head.
