Default too cheap to buy 2 itr cams.

i searched google, ask, here, but i guess its too hard to sum up for a good search. what im trying to say is, will just an itr intake cam make any noticable power on a pretty much stock gsr with typical i/h/e? or will just an itr exhaust cam make power?
the car is intended to be a cheap build begginer track car that dont want to overpower the driver (me, first timer).

don't waste your money on the exhaust cam, the intake cam is all you need

thank you for suggestion.
thinking through my head before i posted this thread, i hypothesised that i an aggressive exhaust cam would not help much on a stock gsr and not nessasary, but aggressive air intake cam should help release factory de-tuned power.

my motto "do it right or dont do it at all." being cheap almost never ends up in the results you intend to get.

yea, this is wat im talking about, it seems like getting rid of the exhaust isn't nearly as hard as drawing air in. dont need a aggressive exhuast when it may not even be nessasary on a stock output motor.
