I was just wondering about how much hp some mild aftermarket cams would give you on a pretty much stock 01 GT.
Thanks

I think 20-25rwhp or so seems to be the norm.

At peak, most cams provide even more important gains at higher RPM. I've seen some give 50rwhp @ 5800 Keep in mind the idle usually needs to be adjusted after cams though

If you are going with cams, it would be a good idea to get full exhaust and have some intake mods.
