When I originally sold him all these things he was on the turbo stroker train.
They are turbo prepped and the cam in the photo is a split profile cam. Although I don't know what it is as the PO didn't give me the cam card so I don't have the specs for it.  I was told it was ground by comp cams.

If he stays NA he can have the intakes moved up to 42's as I believe that the exhaust's are 37's.  If he goes turbo strokie he will be right on.

The worst performance mod is whatever you're limited to because you convinced yourself (or others) that anything bigger or faster was too extreme for a street car.
