Yes I have the XP(retarted) cam ...... Note sure, I need to contact Matt and see what he thinks. I want to try and hit 550+whp on my next dyno, which I think is feasable considering I did 475whp with a blown turbo and exhaust leaks.

If i had as much money into the setup as you do id be looking to do something custom like what merc has done and alot of others are doing. I think his is basically a higher lift stage 2. With your tubular headers and the turbo your running a cam setup to match will make your car a topend monster like gabes car.

With all you Chicago burbs guys cruzing around you would think I would have seen some of your cars on the street at some point( I went to ECC so i was in elgin all the time), but All i have ever ran into was a '04 with an exhaust and a dark GP with HID lows and fogs.... Where are you guys hiding

I live within a mile from ECC. I've been around just not in the GTX.

Non of the generic vender cams. Although its much easier to just pick on. Sometimes its better to customize the cam to your setup rather than pick an off the shelf cam.
