Cams will add a nice bump in power and torque without having to run more boost.

When I had my Vortech, I was running the stock pulley and was putting down almost 430whp and 340 lb ft.

Had zero problems and just used the fuel system that came with the kit.

Good luck!

Just follow the CJ Motorsports instructions to the T. It's what I did and i see 50 psi at all times, other than it dropping down to 40 psi at redline - although i'm not running lean.

ive been told 16 hrs labor by more than 1 shop.

so basically double the price of your cams and add some more and thats your install cost.
