They aren't necessary for a boosted motor unless you get tuned by someone who knows what they are doing and want to make more power by cam adjustments

Yea i agree with perlmeistere81, theres no need for adjustable cam gears it you dont go in for a tuning session. I've seen Venom gears on a GSR hold up fine and i heard AEM gears slip at high rpms.

I've seen pictuers of AEM cam gears that were on high HP applications. The outcome is not pretty.

Golden Eagle makes a good product. My friend has a set of cam gears for his H22 that cost about $150/piece. I can't remember the brand, though.
