I personally would change it out. The profile of NA cams were specifically made for all motor apps.

Not too mention, I would also consider running an upgraded valvetrain w/ any stage 2 cam. Just my personal opinion. Go with the Zex Cam for boost

exactly and it served its purpose as an N/A cam but i am just making sure that it would still serve the purpose under boost, or if stock would be better?

i mean single slammers are for gas saving not for performance.

trying to get alot of power out of any single cam is like filling a pool up with a squirt gun... yes, it can be done but its a waste of time.

now do you understand?

Sorry dude...but obviously you havent been around ANY single cam builds that put down serious power. You think its incapable of power just because it has one cam? This is just plain ignorance....I can show you a NUMBER of single cam builds that will make you **** your pants...

I would say sell this cam and go with the Zex...

However if you dont feel like doing that, then i would just go back to stock.

Ok....and thats fine. But dont sit here and say that you CANT make power out of a D series. No **** a K series build will be monstrous compared to a D...its also almost twice the displacement bone stock.

However, you tell me which takes more money to build?........

lol ok?

its not who can show who the most hp D-series. its what platform will make more power and sense in the long run.

lets see...
400hp single cam @ 23psi
or
412hp b20v @ 11.2psi with way more to go.

you guys dont get that the head flow and bore/stroke of a D-series is not meant for making HP. like i said yes it can be done but with lower boost levels, not pushing the motor to the limit a B/K will make way more HP with the same amount of boost.

well why not do it right the first time....
if the have to keep building D-series because your pushing them to the limit it may cost more in the long run to make the same amount of power.
