I'm leaning on the Tq cam, SE AC, and tuner at the first service. No SE mufflers The TQ cam still increases the HP up top over the stock cam. The biggest restriction is the cat in the header.. It's enough that freer flowing mufflers don't make any difference... Bet might see something if you knock the cat out but me wanting to keep the warranty and quiet sounds like a win - win.
if it doesn't work out with the stock mufflers, can always buy aftermarket.. One thing to note is that with the M8 heads flowing so well, the durations of these cams is mighty short and the cat really controls the exhaust flow.. This means that a wide range of exhausts can be used and performance/tune changes very little.

Thing I noticed with torque cam over stock is that it runs the torque out further. The stock cam falls on its face after 3500. I don't think you'll get a lot more hp without losing cat as that holds back the flow some but not sure what will happen with torque with cat removed.I like being over 100tq at 2200 waiting so see this setup without cat and if its worth it

Cam help
I was also looking at the Stage II Kit along with the SE A/C and new Exhaust System just did not want the Power Cam so I went through the SE catalog and found SE8-462 CAM and was curious if there are any number on this. I understand that the Power Cam option is good for top end and the Torque Cam option is good for the low end, I was thinking that this could be somewhere in the middle. Not losing any low end and adding a little top end. If that is not the case would really like to know in order to get the right option. Thanks.

I have been looking at doing the Stage I and II and was trying to figure out which cam would be better, the Torque or Power. I was planning on getting the SE A/C and a SE exhaust system, it moves the CATS away from the header and back into the muffler. I do not want to loss the low end torque but would like to add some top end and was looking through the SE catalog and found SE8-462 CAM, and was wondering if anyone has more information on this particular cam?
