OK guys, I'm Christmas shopping for myself as my mom has asked me too lol. well im going to get a new MAF (C&L? Which are other good ones?) and intall my 24lbs injectors. But, i want to put in a cam first. How would a trick flow Stage 1 cam be? Should i get the Stage 2 or no way? any other cams you guys suggest? how are comp cams, crane enegizer cams? please be specific with each cam (like a PN please) that you think would help me out the most. I dont mind how lumpy it is (although i love the sound of and idling cammed motor) but this car is my DD, but i also want the MOST form my car. heres wat i got so far:
Cobra intake
Gt40 trubo swirls
1.7 RR
longtubes h pipe flowmaster catback
3.55's
70 mm TB
(soon) 24lbs inj and matching MAF

I've heard good things about FTI cams that are done by Ed Curtis.

I have the stage 1 cam from TFS and love it great cam. I would wait on the custom one for later cause if you ever decide to go blower or turbo im sure you would need to change the cam then you would be making another custom cam and have one setting on the shelf collecting dust.

the c&l is useless when putting in a cam. you wont be able to tune it.

are the turbo swirls the same as gt40's or do they flow more? if the flow more go with a pro flow with the 24's for tuning reasons. fwiw, i was running rich with my 24's.

They're not the same as cast iron GT40s. They're aluminum and flow 30cfm more. Be safer to go with 24s. MM&FF made 330-350 horsepower with them with a matching intake and cam. Definately 24lb'er range.
