    shrick cam question

    New to e30s and i just had a quick camshaft question. Im building an m20b25 daily driver/drift beater. Currently running header, intake, custom exhaust, solid motor mounts and transmission mount and i was planning on running either a 272/272 or 284/272. Just wondering if anyone out there is running a similar set up and if they had any cam suggestions and any suggestions on a chip and where to purchase the chip. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    for the money, go with the 284/272. idle is still good, but better HP potential. works fine with new OE springs and rockers.

    for a chip - you really want something custom, there won't be an off the shelf chip that will maximize the potential of your engine.

        I knew I'd have to go with something custom but I was wondering if there was a company that did a good flash tune. I live in a very rural area and there arent to many people that could tune localy.
