RE: Cam upgrade??
hi if you look in the drive train performance section you will see some views......personally i think a crane 10/12 or 14 would be ok for the stock motor.....with minor upgrades

RE: Cam upgrade??
I had stage 1 @ 21psi, And 0016 Crane Cams and cam gears tuned. The 0016 are the heaviest cams you can get for street and ive got 50hp gain at 6k rpms and about 60hp peak power. Lets put it like this, without the cams/camgears/valve springs, and fmic, i was 262hp, with all of those upgrades, i was at 327hp with absolutely no tuning what so ever with a 12.1-12.5 a/f. if you get stage 5 cams or the heaviest cams out there then you might be ****ed, my cams, are perfect.

just to add to it, stock block, stock everything, and a cracked turbo which leaked exhaust near the dump. 8 months running, now im with a 57trim. im trying to max out the turbo but the hp keeps up climbing, no sign of it falling at redline. Ill keep you updated when i am done, need more fuel.

RE: Cam upgrade??
you have a set of crane #10's. good for a stock car, not going to see a huge difference but defiently noticable. if you want the most power you can get, look into adjustable gears, they will allow you to tune the cams.

Can I interest anyone in a set of Crane 14's that are brand new, but modified to use the 2.0L cam gears (A much wider selection of Cam Gears available for the 2.0L)
