What do you really need? If you dont have a need for air tools then fo for the cams. Air tools do come in handy though.

I rarely use air tools but I use the **** out of my air compressor. I would go with cams it is getting to be that horsepower making time of the year.

this reply had a alot of thought in it lol, however I busted both my nuts taking the bolts out of the tranny, tcase and motor mounts. I also have been busted those nuts all my life wishing I had a air gun lol. I think I am leaning more towards the Tools......Justin is right I can get the bc 280's anytime..... I might need the air tools to do the cam job anyways lol

With the proper air-tools you can build your own cams!!
(okay mabye it's not that easy)

I would go with the tools, they help your evo, the other cars in your household, and tons of other things. If you are worried about not having something to do with the Evo when you get air-tools instead of cams, just give yourself a boost-leak check with your new compressor! There is bound to be a leak somewhere!
