Sup guys, im looking to get performnace cams for my car and i was wondering if i should get stage 1 or 2. The website says for stage 1 it works with stock valve springs. Daily driver. Idle to 6700 rpm and for stage 2 it says for agressive street use or nitrous. Idle 1000 to 7000+. i have an exhaust, intake, and header and there is a comp. chip on its way and i dont have nos. So what do u think will be best? and will they be worth spending 415$...Thanks

First things first, what model DSM do you have? Turbo? N/A? It's very important that we know what you drive before we can help you. Also, WTF is stage 1 and stage 2? We need some more information about the cams, because stages don't really help much. What company are you planning on buying from?

i have an RS and its a non turbo..and the cams i want to get are from Crower...and on the website i want to get them from, it has 3 stages of cams the higher the stage the more work you should have done to ur car

Stage 3 - Full Race. Recommended for Drag Race use only. Kit # 84176 and ECU required. Idle 1500 - 7500+ rpm.

i guess its up to you. the more aggressive the grind the better upper end power. no matter what, you'll want to buy new lifters with a set of new cams.

This may sound like a dumb question but what would lifters be? and where might i get lifters? sorry for the dumb question haha.

I dont want to sound annoying but i still dont really know what exactly lifters are and what exactly they do. I went to the site, and it said it was for turbo, does that matter? thanks in advance

Not to be mean but I would save the money for a turbo kit or a turbo car. How much power will you get with $400 cams? 10hp? If you were crafty or Jake, for $400 you could make yourself a turbo setup.

sell everything and search autotrader.com for a cheap gst or gsx.

Hey i got $650 dollars saved up. Is that enough for a turbokit? Or should i save a little bit more to get a good setup...?
