Probably going to be doing cams next and just looking for some vids to help me decide which ones. Leaning towards VT Stage 2 N/A cams right now. Preferably looking for vids with O/R H-pipes and flowmaster catback.

here are some sounds. vids were a bit large to host.

if you like lope at idle get the vt stage II or the comp 270's.

they both do not hurt your power that much down low even with stock heads.

I should give say something about you should never pick a cam based on sound, only specs but I too like a lopy idel so I will skip the lecture.

I've heard that you'll lose quite a bit down low with the stage 2's. I've also read that they recommend at least 3.55's or a 3000 stall with those (presumably due to the loss of low end torque.)

I'm sure you know, but be sure to replace your valve springs with something a little tougher if you do the stage 2's.

here is a graph. I don't see any crazy low end loss. If I were staying n/a I would prefer these to the stage 1's.

then again I would not even bother with cams and things If I were not going to run 3.73's or 4.10's. you need lower gears to take advantage of you new power band.
