Advantage of HKS 272/272 Cams?

[Colossus]

What's the actual advantage of HKS 272/272 Cams? Higher rev limits? More HP? What's the point?

of course I can't find it right now... but if you search on here there is a link that compares about 6 sets of cams to stock cams... the 272's make way more hp than stock... and really help out the top end

Hmmm yeah I searched last night and didn't find anything useful.

Thanks!

It will give you some real nice pulling power on the top end. Even with my 264's I notice a large difference on top end. You will love em...

Hrmmm...

There's a 91 talon tsi here, no exhaust (o2 dump) fully rebuilt motor don't know what parts, I think ross pistons and stuff, t3/t4 with .62 A/R, stock sidemount (ran outta cash), 720cc injectors, s-afc2, and a buncha other stuff.

He has the 264/264 and it idles like crap...not crap, but it sounds like it's gonna stall...blupblupblupblup...blupblup..blupblup.....blup..blupblup..blup..blupblupblup pulls like hell though when he gets on it

increases your peak hp by some, but you get great gains in the upper rev ranges(6k+). Alot of the dyno graphs you see might only be 10 or 15hp peak gain, but at 6500 there is something ridiculous like 40whp gain. My friend's car after he got 272's pulls like crazy up top.

would 272's not be streetable?

272's are very streetable
