I'm a little confused since your Avatar says evo8 but you asked about an evo 9. If you have a IX I wouldn't bother with cams unless you have full bolt-ons. Especially on a stock turbo you're not getting much bang for your buck.

only reason why i did injectors was in preparation for my meth kit. i upgraded all the fuel mods in prep for the bigger bolt ons i was gettin into. but to do a valvetrain kit and some injectors with only a TBE and MBC is too fast.

Get yourself a walbro pump, and a FMIC. if you got some more money then get yourself some camshafts........................But it all depends on what you want in the long run
