I see thx. Do you think the stage 1 would give a more milder version of the rumble you got at idle? Cause thats what Im shooting for, between yours and stock. Also, no valvetrain kit needed for stg1 which is a plus.

i am scared of getting those cams now .. i dont want my car to sound like that ..
damn freaking loud
RELAX!!!!!!!! Your car is not going to be that loud with just cams, i have my downpipe open in the vid.
i was being a lil sarcastic .. sounds great .. but can be annoying to the people where i live .. lol
sounds good man ..
how much did you end up paying for the cams cam gears and retainers?
Well since i was willing to make the drive out from So-cal to FBM in las vegas, they gave a sweet deal on everything. The Crower stg2 cams and valvetrain, FBM ported head and fidanza gears and im not messing with you it was $700 installed. Call them up i dont know how far you live from them, but if you are willing to drive out to their shop they give sweet ass deals. I actually went to their shop twice the first was for their ported turbo and manifold package which was the ported stock turbo, exhaust manifold, intake manifold, throttle body and spacer all for $600.
FBM said that crower advised them to change the springs and retainers.
You can use the stock retainers just fine.
But you definately needed to change springs.
depends on the specs of the cam.. dont want them to be off or floating a valve will cause problems... id get retainers esp with a radical cam and tighter springs which are made for higher rpms

What do i get if i win, or should i say when i Win.
How about we race for your NX kit after i win you will not need anymore. j/k
Does the SRT-4 react well to aftermarket cams (as far as check engine lights and not running lean)? Do you get any notable gains with the cams and stock heads?
I put a Crower custom grind in my Dakota and it didn't wake up until I installed larger heads.
