I have a 1996 del sol esi (single cam) and I want fast road cams, what brand is best performance wise? And how much will I be looking at paying?

Cheers, Aaron.

What else is done to the engine? If nothing, don't waste your time.

If you decide to make the purchase anyways...make sure you dont buy cams as in 2 of them. A single cam only has 1 cam.

I've seen a couple stock d16z6's that had i/h/e using a 59300 cam with a tune, and granted they were still a single cam but not all that bad for one.

Dont get ur hopes up that doing bolt on's to a d15/d16 is going to improve the power greatly.

Im not looking for much improvement just around 200bhp, I know that swapping to a B engine can give me around 170 stock but in my area its hard to find B engines, turbo wise dont you have to uprate basically everything engine wise?

200bph is a huge improvent on any d-series. Start looking at other's builds...research....and see what you're getting yourself into.

Thanks for the advice I will look into it, but I dint really wanna get into engine swaps as I know a few people that have done swaps on other cars but it took like 6 months to get it running properly and I wanna be ready for usc in august.

6 months

That is absolutely insane. Sounds like a bunch of people not knowing what the hell they are doing.

I did my first swap in only a few days. My second swap took about a week. If you do enough research you can do anything. 6 months is outrageous.
