evo 8 cams

[zantrick]

Anyone know if the evo 8 cams are forged or hardened? And what are the specs on a factory 2g cams? 272 both exhaust and intake? Help me out.

They won't work in a DSM if that is what your thinking about doing, the Evo 4g63 is the opposite of the DSM 4g63.

Oh that's right, I had a amnesiac moment there! \'-'/ Thanks for catching me! I was about to trade this dude a car for some cash and parts. What about the turbo "Big 16g" and exhaust system? Will that bolt on to a 2g gsx automatic? If I remember correctly I was reading in a post about how you have to crush the water pipe or something; yea?

Evo 8 and 9 16gs are different as well. Its mostly internal stuff to the engine that is compatible across to other 7-bolts

Nope, the turbo inlet faces the other way as well. Check it out.
Here is my GSX motor(yes I'm aware the bov isn't recirculated the previous owner did it, it is now fixed)

So, on the turbo it is just the compressor housing that is not pointing right?
I am sorry if I sound dumb ><

Ya, and you can't put it on ## car unless you plan on custom mounting your alternator etc etc etc. Not worth your time, buy an E316g and call it a day.
