264/272's or 272's on 13g

Hey guys. Wasn't planning on doing cams so soon but while taking off my valve cover I noticed I have a few indents on my intake lobes. So now I'm shopping around. I plan to just send them out to delta cams for a regrind but I'm not sure if I should go with the 264/272 combo or go straight 272's. I plan to drive this almost as a daily driver while sticking with the stock 13g turbo that came with it set to 15psi. I've talked to delta cams already and they suggested the straight 272's, but no offense to them, I have read that if I am sticking with a smaller turbo I should go with the 264/272's. I am scared that I will lose out with the 272's because it is an automatic and I can't control it shifting short of the power band. Any suggestions? Plan on purchasing by next week so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

I'm going to step out on a limb here. I'm willing to bet that racegas, and a mbc being the only mods, will max out a 13g compressor on a 1g dsm. You could spend $xxxx's of dollars and get maybe 2-30 more horsepower.

When i put my HKS 264,272's on my car with a small ported 16g it was i noticed it BIG time, But in your case like stated about i would look for a used set off of cams off a 5spd 1993-1994.

Well actually I think I already found a set of 2g cams in the classifieds. I figured it would be hard to find the 93-94 ones due to people not marking what they have. With the 2g cams all I have to do is find someone that absolutely knows they came off a 2g. Thanks alot guys.
