Rep Power: 0 D17a2 stage 2 crowder camshaft
I bought a crower stage 2 camshaft about a month ago. I was wanting to get some tips on getting the most performance outta it. Like what all do I need? Just the springs and retainers? If I get a k-pro engine management system would I still need a ecu? If someone who knows more about this could help me out that would be sweet. Car is been in the driveway for a couple months now and just wanna get it done the right way.

Just to make sure.. I'm assuming your engine is not turbocharged, so did you make sure you got the N/A version of the cam?
And to piggyback on GolNat, titanium springs/retainers ($300), fuel/engine management, and a GOOD tune. I vaguely recall reading somewhere that you may have to notch the block, but I have no source to back that up on.

Good lord, no. Stock can handle maybe 8psi max.
You're gonna need a custom intake manifold that can take that kind of pressure. I couldn't tell you off the top of my head what kind of internals you'd need to handle the boost. You're also gonna need fuel injectors, aftermarket fuel pump, likely a return-style fuel system conversion.
