LOL I agree. Not sure I ever heard of a cam for sound. What's next one of those noise makers that go in the tail pipe to make the car sound like it has a turbo?

So a cam does not make the engine lope and does not make it sound better? Damn man maybe I'm on the wrong forum.

you sir are an idiot, you will make far more power modifying the top end of your car than the bottom end, and you have cams, thats right plural 2 of them. I have 4 because im cooler than you.

First things first I know my car has two cams because ive been shopping around all day for them. And just cause a person doesn't know every thing about one thing does not make them stupid. And if I want a naturally aspirated car I don't know how focusing on top end more than bottom end will do that. I did not come on here to start **** or try to say I'm smarter than any one just starting up a new project and trying to get some info.

Any set of cams you put in a stock engine with stock springs and stock pistons will not make much of a difference in sound.

Actually you might be surprised. If you have the right exhaust setup it will make a pretty big difference at idle. I was a impressed at mine for what they are.
