depends on the track and what rev range you are capable of keeping the car in. Toda cams ussually own JUN cams from 3000-7000 rpms. Jun cams ussually make more power from 7500 rpms and up.

i would go for toda if i had the cash.

they seem to make the better low to mid range power which is what you need in autox/track courses.

also you might want to look into the new Buddy Club Spec 3+ cams. they seem to kick *** in the low-midrange power band and stil have a really good strong top end.

from what i have read about toda cams though is that their own valve springs are not good enough for their own cams because of their extream lift and duration. This car would be a daily driver i would not want to have to open up this engine all the time because it is breaking and wearing out things.

they do not have extreme duration. (Toda cams) They do have big lift. Toda springs are fine for their cams. The only thing I don't like about Toda cams is how violently they let the valve back to its seat.
