Steeda #19 is a good all around cam, So is the TFS Stage 1, good cam specs and its pretty cheap, right around $140 I belive.

what would u recommend, the steeda 1 wasd 199.00 do they have the same specs,

The TFS stage 1 is a more aggressive cam and it is better suited for a GT40P combo. It could give the computer some problems, although I've never heard of it.

I havent had any problems with my TFS Stage 1. It would stall at idle when I first installed it, but now it runs fine.

i should just go with the steeda 19 it is made for my car and be done with it. you guys agree or disagree?

 

[Joes95GT]

There are better cams out there than the Steeda cam, but most of them will probably cause stalling and the such. If you want to install it and forget about it, use the Steeda. After all, it is better than the stocker.

thanks joe..and im sure it will sound more aggressive then the stocker correct?

That is probably going to be a negative, although I've never heard one in person. Combined, the LSA and the duration of the cam make up how it's going to "sound". Although it has decent duration numbers, the wide LSA of 115 or 116 (which ever it is), is going to drown out most of that "cammed" sound. PM RIO5.0, he's got the Steeda and could tell you more about it than I could.

The stedda # 19 does not offer a big "loop loop" cam sound that you can hear. But is does sound different than the stocker. I have had"0" issues with this cam and my computer, There are better cams out there is you want a few more ponies, but this one drops in and goes. Everyone complains about losing bottom end. I didnt really notice a difference, but then again I did all my mods at the same time.

It has a 115 LSA.

I would reccemend the #19 also, I havent had any issues since I installed it,and it does offer a more lopey idle especially at a lower idle.I went with 1:7 RRs for a bit more lift.
