changing cams is not worth it on the 5s. changing cams alone will not yeild much power, u need a head that flows more air. one of the best things about the 5s in the low end TQ, u will lose it by changing cams. not worth it if your gonna and boost. save your money buy the 3s head and go from there, or just boost the 5s.

[/quote] So, what id the general consensus? Worth doing or not? Seems to be worth it for an NA 5S-FE? What would opinions be doing it for a 5S-FTE? |
