Some nice cams and supporting mods such as springs and retainers will really amplify the power band.

Also some arp head studs if your doing 30 + psi

Invest in that tune! not only can huge gains (or losses) be had, but so can the reliability for the rest of the setup

Just get some GSC S1 and call it a day. You don't need big cams if you're staying stock motor.


What shop do you go to?

I agree. GSC S1's are great on the X. Even on the dinky stock turbo they pick up 15whp. No need for anything bigger as far as cams go unless you want to shoot for over 600whp.

For a stock motor and daily driver, GSC S1 are your best bet then.

I know Agile. I'd steer you to either CBRD or Moore though...they're top tier Evo shops and aren't far from Baltimore. We're fortunate to have access to some really great tuners close by.
