best hp and torque gains are relative to how you want the car to run... if you want a car that will barely idle but make a ton of power there are plenty of cams for that... if you want a cam to make good power and run decent there are plenty of those.. all depends on your horsepower goals and driveability needs.

im running a tr224 and an Edge 3200 converter and its a great all around combo, low, midrange and top end are all there. a 230 or higher cam with a 4000 converter would obviously be faster and less streetable. so it comes down to what kind of monster do you want to create.

Set a goal. You could go many different routes with car.
