i was looking at your stage 1 cams, and it says it bolts straight up with no need of cam wheels, ecu modifications, or valve springs. Why wouldnt you need better valve springs because it is a higher lift than stock cams? Would it give it a little more power if i put better valve springs and cam wheels in it. If i decide to go n/a i plan on getting an SAFC for the headers and wouldnt that help get out more horsepower from the cams. What do you think would be the approximate horsepower increase from a stage 1, maybe 10whp.<br><br>Post edited by: ridemlow03, at: 2006/06/26 13:20
Stage 1 cams are designed by RPW as a drop in cam. The idea behind strong springs is to insure that the valve closes when it is supposed to and not float between cam lobe cycles which can be detrimental to your engine. You can't go wrong with having stronger springs but it's unecessary for stage 1 cams. We are still wondering what cams will do to a N/A 3G as well since most customers typically buy turbo or supercharger cams. Good luck with your setup and we are eagerly awaiting to hear your results
