It depends on what you're trying to do and how technical you want to get. Yes plenty of people have made great power on a stock cam, but if there is a benefit to be found (Earlier spool, change in powerband, increased power) it comes down to is it worth it financially to you?

exospeed cams appear promissing, but i cant find any before and after dyno charts. can anyone help out with that? i wonder how reliable they are too.

aftermarket non-vtec D series cams are a pain in the ***.

We have a customer that is using our D16A6 Stg2 SR909 cam for his turbo setup. I believe 15psi making 350s? Mid 300s from what I remember.

We've put together SOHC VTEC turbo race motors for customers as well with our SV909 sohc vtec cam, boosting 18psi, making high 300s. I've seen their graphs here, in other posts.
