    Rockers are just a cheaper alternative to a cam...they make somewhere close to a cam but not quite as much...I know for a fact I've been beat by a intercooled and rockered car with my XP Setup and that thing was stupid fast...

    And yeah when I had my 1.84's vs. stock I could really feel a difference around 4-5K
