good? No, its been told and shown time and time again you need higher compression to work with the stage IIs.

Common rule of thumb is:
10:1 stock
11:1 stage I
12:1 stage II
13:1 stage III

I tried the S2S2 cams in a stock USDM GSR.

Dynojet tuned with
Regular mods Intake etc
Skunk2 manifold
ITR header, 2.25 exhaust piping
CTR Cams skunk gears
168WHP

Same setup with the S2S2 made 173WHP BUT I lost power all the way to 7200 where they evened out and I did not gain any power until 7700 up. The car felt like a slug, bad midrange power.
