I 100% disagree with this. Cams are an EXTREMLY important upgrade for our engines in regard to power output. You run my setup with a set of stock cams, and it would easily spool later, make a HUGE deal less power, and much less torque as well.

Heck even in stock motors, a nice mild to medium set of cams (and by mild I mean a 256-264 duration) will be the best thing you can run. It not only frees up power N/A (assuming thier was no turbo) but also frees up a ton of power when boosted. Remember, the motor is an airpump - the more efficiently you can get it in and out, the better torque/power you will make.
