[QUOTE="cnd_beancounter, post: 12162, member: 445"] Cam will ALWAYS help hehe. The problem is if you do a cam you will want a tune... and when you do headers it will require another tune. Your best bet is to plan on doing everything at once when you go any further down the performance mod highway. Its the labour that kills yeah... Personally.... now that the mod bug has bitten you.... its only a matter of time before you want to do the cam.... I HIGHLY recommend you budget for longtubes, cam, heads, springs, tune and install all at once.... you will save yourself a fortune on labour... tell the wife its to improve fuel economy?! I hate buying longtubes and heads as I don't think they provide the bang per $ as cai/exhaust... but as they become the power bottleneck in the system it really wakes up the car. My last project was a 300c and I did the heads/headers/cam/tune/cai/catback all at once.... The last thing I did was the highflow cats.... I swear those things added 30+ rwhp by the butt dyno... just because it was just a huge bottleneck. Anyways I'm rambling. Quitting smoking not going so well today... eek. [/QUOTE]
