it depends, are you going to be gonig turbo. becuase cams are usually not on the turbo setup list. if you are goin n/a then it would be a good ida. but first you have to get the basic mods such as intake header exhuast. when you get your cams, its a good idea to get cam gears, valve springs, retainer, ECU, and a VAFC becuase you want to be able to rev higher safely/safer. the cam gears and VAFC are for tuning. people usually get the stage 2's becuase they are usually listed as street/strip which means more power, but still streeable. well i hope that helped.

With Turbo Setups, Turbo Cams are a nice add too.

With NA setups, Cam is a must have if you want more power.


Either way, I think Cam upgrade is
