I've done it both ways, I have gone direct to Cam Motion and through shops. Honestly, I prefer going through a shop because hopefully the shop guys have a sense of what works in these combos, and they sometimes have recent things they have tried which might influence a new order.

Cam Motion actually cuts the cam. BUT W2W (or any of the shops) are the experts at what cam will work with your set-up/goals. Going through a sponsored site give you the best bet on getting exactly what you need and for the best price.

Thats pretty much what I figured.

Jose told me the Incon setup would more than likely have really high back pressure because of the small turbos. I know I'm going to want to get a custom grind done to at least optimize the setup. I plan on giving them hard data though (egt's and pressures) so they can spec something that will work for me.
