If you have no mods yet, don't waste your time. The motor will need lots of air with a cam. Do all the bolt-ons first.

Ok, lets say you have an intake, headers and an exhaust but no other mods and you have a manual, what then?

Thanks

Use the f*cking search button. This topic has been coeverd 100,00 times over. Look at the sticky above and use the cam guide. Dont just be lazy and post something like which cam and why. You just want someone to tell you what to do? Here: get a TR224. Why?~ because I say its the best street cam.

READ the sticky that says.. SO you want to be fast... hell read any damn sticky and you'll have more info than you already have and can actually ask an informed question .

Maybe a Thunder Racing Cheater cam? Give them a call. Then let us know what they tell you.
