if you have gsr or itr/ctr cams then you are fine, but if you have b16 cams i wouldnt use them.

most the other stuff should work well, is that clutch going to hold the power you want to make?

because gsr cams make a lot more power and cost like 100 bucks to buy definately worth the money

b16 cams are the weakest of the bunch. An ITR camshaft is perfect for boost. I have seen an 800 whp car with ITR cams. B16 cams blow balls. I sold my friend some gsr ones for $30. They give you about 10 flywheel hp or 3 whp.

OK BUT I DONT NEED 3WHP....I KNOW THE B16 CAMS BLOW CHUNKS COMPARED TO THE OTHERS BUT WILLTHEY BE ENOUGH FOR MY GOAL...I DONT PLAN ON TAKING MY HEAD APART ANYMORE...

you are gonna pick up a lot more than 3whp with a forced induction setup. when you are trying to make 500whp you dont want to cut corners. the b16 cams will put you at a huge disadvantage, you are gonna have to push a lot more boost to achieve the same power. you dont have to pull the head completely apart, cams take like an hour to swap out.
