Here is where I will be soon... will I want cams on my FWD?

[fostytou]

96 GST, 6 bolt swap, AMS stage I short block w/full balance shaft eliminator and titanium spings, tanked head, cometic head gasket, Bullseyepower T04b-H3, AMS 680cc Injectors, 2.5" tubular O2>flex>3">greddy evoII, Shep built tranny, Quaife LSD, Feramic competition clutch, Xact flywheel, DSMLink, Custom FMIC w/short route, greddy type-S, B&m short throw, symborski underhood/shifter base, hacked mas, Tokico Illuminas, Eibach Pros, Fuzion 225/50ZR16, SS clutch line

Am I just going to have a ton of wheelspin or should I get some FP1/264 cams?

The FP1 is much more of the right price... but I feel like I'm just going to be able to spin 'em when it matters and once I'm in fifth I really don't need to go faster than 150

I'll have the LSD, and the 30min of use I got out of the fuzions felt like they gripped alot but not a ton (I could only lose traction in first on the T25, maybe chirp second). I need this to be very drivable, thats why im looking at the 264, but also I really need some quick spool.... I don't make it to the track often but there are plenty of long straight roads in between the corn fields. It also seems like the beaten up AMS test gives alot more torque right off the bat.... would that contribute to my simply breaking them, or would it just be good for the butt dyno?

Merry christmas!

where are you getting all your money Frost??? Sounds like a good setup but I know a guy who did a AMS 6-bolt swap with a similar package as you want and it last 650 miles and broke to pieces...Literally I'll try and find pictures. IF you want to wait a little bit, Chicago club DSM is doing a FP1 group buy at the end of January!

stocks... bonds... working at burger king on 38 for two years ... making $10/hr at good ol Arthur Andersen for 3 years and then working to the bone ( 6-7 days a week, 8-14 hours a day) this summer at $13.50.
I was going to buy a Scion tC..... thank god i got this eclipse and had money to put in mods.... aka the thing getting totally wrecked!



Already got the Bullseye. AMS is offering me a 3-month and so far the work looks good, but that would be *cough* HORRIBLE *cough*

You will have traction problems with/without cams.
