Can you run a Shrick cam/Head with a Twincharger?

My Fireballed head and cam kit should be done Thursday and I have a feeling in less than a year from now I will be adding a turbo. Can I keep the cam set up with a turbo? Who knew I would love this car this much. I have 8K in mods and I just made my first payment today, 59 to go. LOL

Which twincharging kit are you considering? Regardless, it all comes down to the tuning. You'll need a programable ecu add-on and access to a dyno plus somebody who really knows what they're doing. Needless to say, the potential for disaster is there if it's done incorrectly.

Don't the Fireballed guys have a t/c setup for sale? I think you can probably get an accurate answer when you're with them.

Mario, you're a fun guy to watch - you have no fear when it comes to mods, and you're always looking ahead to the next one! Keep it up!

LOL, It's funny because this car was to be a daily driver for work and no mods what so ever. My E55 would be for the weekend only. Now I only drive the Mini and I love it, and the Benz is collecting dust in the driveway. I'm sure I need to slow down on the mods because it is getting out of hand. I will ask the guys and Fireballed when I pick up the car this week abou the turbo, I'm sure when I go turbo I will go with their kit. It sure is much easier to buy things with a girlfriend instead of a wife.

We have done three Helix Turbo Kompressor kits with heads and the Schrick or other cam. It needs to be tuned, but it certainly works.

Hope that helps!
Randy

Sorry for the partial hijack, but have you done head/cam after the TK, Randy? I'd be interested in your opinion as to whether it's worth the $ 2k+.

Thanks.
