a cam is only one peice ofa puzzle. you have to think ahead .
seems your planning on a turbo in the future , in your sig anyway.
alot of the big cams are not for daily drivers, power comes on in the higher RPM range. really depends on the way you drive, is your car auto or manual ??
I am going with the roller from racer walsh( stage 1 or 2,can't decide myself)after a rebuild, but thats for later.

the guys on turboford were talking about that boport stage 1 cam, and it sounds pretty good...I've already got the stock ford '91 roller cam, do you guys think that boport cam would make any power improvement on a N/A motor? I'mbuilding a turbo motor on the side, but having some extra ponies in the mean time would be nice.

That cam is for turbo, not N/A so you wont see much of an improvment
