Stage 1 Cams

I have the 2.2L with an automatic and I was thinking about getting a Stage 1 cam from Turbo Tech Racing and I was wondering if anybody else had one or if anyone knew what sort of gains could be expected.

i had stage 2 at one time on an ecotec, they were pretty nice, a little rough at idle but other than that they were great. stage 1 should be even better at idle and give you a decent power gain.

I would be very interested in stage 2 cams if I could get the computer reflashed, but I don't know where to do that in the toronto area

I would settle for stage one if they give a decent power gain with just an intake

i would guess 15hp gain max, its a usual claim by manufacturers
might be able to see a little more benefit with an intake and exhaust

I have the Weapon R Intake and the Pacesetter Cat-Back and I plan on getting a Pacesetter Header and a High-Flow Cat so I'm hoping I can get 15-20 HP from the Stage 1 cams.
