If you have the $ to buy the head and get some decent cams to make use of the porting, you will be very pleased. Id do it if I were you and had the $. Are you still going to have $ to tune if you buy the head and cams? (get cam gears too, might as well... does it have valves and springs? Crap just go all out lol) Depending on your budget Id make a descision on that.

Thats the only thing that sucks, the head comes with stock valves and springs. I wanna get it, but the only thing is how many hp is that head gonna give me if i get some camshafts too.. If i get it tunn i know i'll be happy with some good numbers..

Im hoping to push 300 whp daily drive. Not to sure if this head will do that. Unless you pro's can prove me wrong

If you run a decent amount of boost, say around 1 bar with a decent sized snail with the ported head and decent cams, you should see over 300whp easily.
