yes!!! they are the BEST bang for the buck for a npi motor, they are 100% worth the work and money,


with pi intake & pi cams you will gain about 20-25rwhp

Then yes it is worth it. No question since PI cams can be found really cheap. You should see a 15-20HP bump. Doing both should give you 25 total. You WILL notice the difference.

Pay shipping and I will send you PI cams with 30k out of a 99 GT for free.

This goes for anyone. I have had them for a long time and have no use for them at all.

Definitely put the intake on as well. I gained 2 tenths from just the intake, and close to 2mph. The cams and intake should be good for around 4 tenths and 3-4mph.
