I was also interested in getting Fp cams, better idle characteristics and more top end than any of the hks combo. On a evo3 car im assuming that straight Fp1s would provide the best power band, im not looking to sacrific any low/mid range for only top end considering i want a autox type setup . I was originially thinking getting straight fp2s and getting it over with in case i upgrade turbos, but my friends evo3 fp2 gsx was fast and all but the cams took that hard hit out of it that I like. I dont want to smoothen my power band out to were the torque is too smooth, i like some violence in the pull....But i also was considering what the fp1/ fp2 combo would be like... Tom any suggestions what fp cam selection youd go for on a bolt on evo3 car.
And for the OP, if you have a gt30r you need to go straight fp2s
theres no reason to even consider the 1s at your point. Get the fp2s , hell get the fp2x's for the increased ramp rate if you have extra money for their required valvesprings adn then just work on getting that rev limiter taken off thru dsmlink/dsmchip etc.
Thanks guys you cleared up a lot for me ... I just puchased dsmlink v2 and a pair of fp2's so things should be running pretty swell soon .
