Cam for my 2000 T/a Hey guys,
Ive been searching around lately, and I am still clueless on what cam to get.
My goal is somewhere around 400hp but i will be more than happy with ~380
My mods are:
Lid, LT's ORY and Borla. HP Tuned.
I want to do a cam, but no heads yet. I will eventually have the money for the heads, but im trying to do this on a budget.
The car is daily driven and I want to have a little more fun on the street.
I was thinking about the TSP Magic Stick V.3

What else would i need to install this? I know there is a special too for cams on this motor. Myself and a few gearhead friends will be doing the install.
What do you guys think? What else will i need? And how does this cam compare to say the F13 or F14 for a N/A motor? Do I need double springs or can i get away with Comp 918's? Where do you guys buy your cams, im looking for the best quality for the best price. Any recommendations are welcome and I appreciate you guys takin a look at this for me.
