what gears are you running?is it a daily driver?you'll get a lot of different answers.if it was me,and if your running stock gears and it's a DD,i would go with a 3200 stall.but in the end,it's your car and everybody's idea of the perfect stall speed is different.try to find somebody that already has a stall and drive it to get an idea of what you want...

Is the mod list in your sig accurate and up to date? If so...I'd do a few more bolt ons before sticking the cam in there.

I have the same cam...but a few more bolt ons that you should consider as well (check my sig.). Tad off topic, but still relevant, I think

would definetely be better to strap at least a set of headers on before cam swap.

like the guys said before anywhere between 32-3600 stall. Thats should compliement that size cam very nicely!! For future ref. before you buy the cam.... the drivability is all in the tune...you may want to go slightly bigger. maybe 224/228 or 228/232 with say 3600 stall! great combo
