I don't want to lose my low end, since the car spends most of its time there. I would love a lopey idle, but am concerned with the evironmental police.
You need to further refine what you are looking for, a budget and then the number of cams on your list will start to shrink so you can make a decision.
Good luck.

Also have a set of comp 921"s and ti. retainers with same mileage. If your interested let me know what you think is a fair price.

Best Streetable Cam?
Many good cams have been mentioned on this thread however, I assume that someone else is going to do the cam swap for you, right? I would find a good tuner in your area that you trust and use his suggestion on a camshaft, since he is the one that will be tuning it. BTW I run a 224/228 112 and have been very happy with it.

224/224 .563 114lsa with dual crane spring kit...
I've got about 12 k miles on the car with this kit(34K total on car) and its a nice baby cam...
Great everyday driver and nice improvement in performance.
I'm very pleased with the choice I made. I'd recommend it to any one describing they want a performance improvement and to still have a great daily driver.
Hope this helps...

I have a TR 224/224 in my car now and like it alot, very streetable cam. I was going to go smaller at first then said oh well, and i am glad i did. I know some people with some big cams like a G5x3 in an everyday car.
