No one can say for sure, every car responds a little different. You realize this is a pretty small cam, right? You would probably get 15 to 20 hp with PCM tuning would be my guess.

Yeah that is a relativley small cam...I would go with a 224/224 or something close to that.......But with that cam u should get a very responsive 20RWHP

Gas Mileage: Shouldn't change too much if at all....

Good luck

yea, im not looking for anything big at all...just a bit of a faster daily driver, i don't want gas milage to change or anything like that, because im happy with it..i have considered the 224 cam, but i don't know if i want to take that big step yet, because if i do that, then i would valve,spring kit, roller rockers, and all that stuff
