At least your making some progress.
Progress? I guess. My bank account sure doesn't like me now after the $985 came out. . My car better have an awesome cut up with that cam in it or i will be highly dissapointed. Im hoping for 7.6-7.8's in the 1/8 with the stall and tune and stuff on motor, on the bottle maybe low 7's and possibly 6's but i doubt it.

i just ordered the ms3 cam by itself. i ordered 2 day air cause i wanted to get it done thursday. lol.
if it shows up tomorrow morning like its supposed to, ill swap it right out, and drive it home. long as there are no probs...
ill be ok with my 918s so i guess ill leave them in there. i could have got the ms4 but it has like .650 lift on one side and the 918s wont handle that.....and i reeeally dont want to change springs again.
