There's alot more of these car's nowaday's making 400+ rear wheel kilowatts, and a set of Cam's could make a reasonable upgrade here in power, for the dollar's spent. Maybe Atomic could come to the party and show some before and after result's?

I think they were somewhere around the $1000 mark supplied for the Atomic's, plus I'd guesstimate another say $500 (!?) to have them fitted and have your Tune "touched up" to suit. Good value.
