Could you explain how any aftermarket cam would decrease someone's performance? Also going from 91 oct to 91 oct - how does that set you back?

I was not talking about comparing it to stock...but aftermarket vs aftermarket.....and actually i retract my previous statement and having seen a couple of Tomei turbo equipped cars, I can tell you that this turbo likes smaller cams anyways. 91 octane is extremely restrictive compared to 93 or 100 octane in terms of the tuning you can do, so that's why you lose power....hope i answered everything correctly.

btw search for my name or for Cwill and you will find a couple threads with dynographs.
