Default which cams? (with open exhaust)

The topic says it already.
I don't know which cams to buy. I have a full open exhaust (Xerd
headers and Borla TD).
I don't need more torque. I'd like 272degrees but then I would have to change
valve springs right?

After some research I think Tomei 268 cams with 10,5 lift would
be all right.
Can someone tell me what other things I would have to change with those?

Thanks

I contacted SGP Racing and they suggested Tomei 264 cams instead of the 268, cuz the 268 is way too crazy for street, idles like $hiet. Reason I called them was because I was planning on running a similar all motor setup...more streetable...not race...and what compression you plan to run? Stock right? If anything, give SGP Racing a call...

Yeah, I contacted SGP already.
I might go with 264 as well.
I am planning to stay N/A and go with a 10,5:1 or 11,5:1 compression
later.

yes, 11.5:1 sounds good...if I could, I would too. But my car is way too new to mess with the bottom end. So what are your octanes over there? our highest for the street is 91. Sucks! Do you see the individual throttle bodies on my avatar? It's a really small picture, but they are made by HKS for the VQ35DE. Crazy for all motor setups! But I don't way too expensive...HKS do not even have pictures of these ITB's on their website yet...have to wait...and TWM Induction won't make them...

Yeah, we have 100oct at the station here but it's counted different than
at you. Our 100 is like your 95. So it's still fine for 11,5:1
The Nismo heads look quite interesting but actually we'll do all the internal engine work by ourselves.
Time will tell!
