I have not bought mine yet!

My "BIG" project will not begin until June or July.

I'll start buying parts. cam, cam gear, springs, retainers, ETC

I’m kind of a pack rat. I can sit on a part for a real long time before I ever install it. **** had my VAFC2 for over a year before I installed it & tuned it.

Again Cash is a big issue for me...

Off topic: my car is paid off in SEP! Soooo I'll have A LOT more income to spend then!

If you go the emang rout you might as well pony up for EMS!

Raise your rev limiter & tune ingition timing...

Yes thats true but you get what you pay for.

Do a little more reserch on the capabilities of the EMANAGE VS EMS!

Like I said you will want to tune ingition timing real bad with anything "better" then a stage 2 cam N/A.

there are some great reasons why EMS is far better one of the main reasons is the EMS is the only way to raise the rev limiter. now the cam makes power until 8k and your redline is set at 7k so there will be a lot of power your missing out on in that 1k rpms. also fine tuning ignitions maps and fuel maps. but you make your decisions. there has yet to be anyone here to tune the cam with a EMS sucessfully. i think you can make close to 150whp N/a
