As far as peak numbers are concerned, there isnt much difference between the two besides the MS4 picking up a few more ponies up top, but in our dyno testing, we have seen better midrange from the MS4 over the MS3 due to the larger intake duration, and tighter LSA.

I ran an Ms3 with full bolt ons through an m6 and 4.10 gears. Drove it daily in Dallas in traffic jams and everywhere. I loved that cam. Gears will make or break your experience with any larger camshaft.

The MS4 with bone stock heads usually comes in anywhere from .070"-.090" Intake, and .090"-.110" on the exhaust.

For a street/strip car the large converter certainly would help make the difference, but of course for a strip only car you would want gears as well. I guess it really depends on your goals with the car.
