Default what to do?

I just ran across about $1200.00. I have I/H/E and a rear sway bar is on the way. I want to know what I can do the motor. I keep hearing cams and gears. What brand and do you guys recommend. What Stage? Do I need to get different retainers/springs. I'm not going to attempt to do it myself, so I'm wondering how mcuh a shopt would charge for installation. I figuring that if I have all that done, that I should get it dynoed too...Wondering how much that is as well..

Are you going N/A or FI?

If N/A then I would definitely go with maybe the Skunk2 cams and cam gears.

If FI, save your money for a turbo/supercharger.

What color car do you drive? I probably have seen you...

I'm going N/A...It's a red GSR..I just spoke with Inline Performance in your neck of the woods, and it's expensive..796 for the cams, 425 for springs and retainers, 129 piece for the cam gears, and 365 to install..That's a big chunk of $$$ for only a 5-10 horsepower gain..That's what he said, only 5-10...I don't many other choices sticking with N/A..

Trust me, your going to gain a lot more than 5-10HP with aftermarket cams. Plus thats one piece of the puzzle with an N/A motor. Skunk 2 and JUN are both very good.

If your going N/A, your going to want higher compression (pistons, rods) Maybe ITR pistons...

Buy all the parts on your own, and just have installed.
