HKS led the charge with affordable and available Evo VIII cams. I wish they had a better offering for the X. As it stands now, I'm staying stock until something is better than what is currently out there.
I agree that the stock turbo is a huge bottleneck, definitely needs to be attacked, but I also agree with Clark Kent and am not super jazzed about the offerings out there now. I had a external gate 3071R kit on my VIII, I think a 3076R kit for the X with mild cams, springs, and an actual retainer kit would be fun. 8200rpm and a good flowing turbo should make the car get up and move.

No wonder nobody wants those cams, that's a silly feature with so many tuning solutions available.
