Default 227/231 111+2 cam

I was looking for this cam and found one for sale at Texas speed for a good price givin my signature (plus the new fast 102 intake) do you guys think this would be perfect in my setup? I was also debating on having it cut on a 110.... What do yaw think? Imlookimg for the fastest cam at the track while staying reliable... And keeping some torque for when imoff roading.

My personal opinion is go FI! Spending $1000 on an intake just seems absurd to me for the relatively minimal gains it provides. Chances are it's going to hurt your low end power too.

I would love to get a procharger!!! After it's all said and done it would cost me about 1500 more if I was lucky enough. To get a cheap kit used... With that out of the picture I'm trying to get my heavy *** 4x4 in the 11's naturally aspirated.... So although 1k is pretty expensive relative to the gains... It will be worth it in the long run to tell my buddys I told u so when I hit 11.99 n/aLol!! So hopefully I will have some luck on my hands!

If you got it spec'd, why do you want to change it? He obviously knows a hell of a lot more about what he's doing than you do. Not trying to start anything, but why don't you just stick with what he spec'd for you?
