What are your goals? Dyno numbers? Track numbers? Want more peak numbers or area under the curve? Streetability? Fuel economy? How high are you willing to shift? What kind of tuning are you prepared to do?

IMO, the future cams you listed are not very big steps up...just baby steps. If you want to go bigger, you may want to consider bigger than these (provided you're willing to tune).

current setup feels very peaky, want a different setup, non daily driver, want it to feel good all the way around, gettin gears so that should make up for the low end on the bigger cam, streetabilty isnt a big factor but more so than peak numbers....dont need a monster but i want more.....
