Yeah, i'd recommend reading as much as you can on these forums, then when you feel like you have a good understanding of everything for the most part, call up TSP or Patriot (or heck, a local Comp shop if you have one) and tell them EXACTLY what you want as far as how you want your car to perform.
If you're too lazy to do research or simply are in a hurry to get that thing cammed (i had to fight this), go w/ the Thunder Racing 224. Seems to be the one everyone shoots for who just wants a good, all around cam.
Understand that there are a few key supporting mods to go w/ a new cam/heads

Rate the following on a scale of 1 to 10:
Do you want it to idle and drive like stock or like a top fuel dragster?
Do you want low end torque or do you want high end RPM?
Do you want a stock powerband or are your comfortable spinning RPMs high?

you dont have to get a mild cam for a daily driver my friend had a big custom grind cam from texas speed in his car that he daily drove for two years with out any problems my car isnt a daily driver but ive got an LG G5X2 ( 232/234 595/608) but these cams just as the ms4 are going to give you your power at high RPM's . you should really listen to Vrbas and do as much research about this as you can before you buy.. good luck man
