Default CAM TIME HELP

Well, haevnt posted in ahwile. How ever i have a 94 tang GT 5 spd, nothins been done to it really besides lowering springs. I was thinking about starting off with Cold air intake, throttle body and cams, not nessicarly in that order but w/e. My question is what type of cam should i be looking for i really have no idea where to start in looking for one or what i need to match with my car. Is there a outstanding differnence in the cam i would want to buy if i got the CAI and TB beofre the cam verses after. I dotn want to loose ne low end power but dont want to give up top end to achieve low end. What types of gains should i be excepting and prices from the camshaft upgrade. Any help would be grealty appreciated. Thank you in advance.

None,if anything you might lose power and you will def. lose gas mileage and driveability for nothing other then sound....if i was you i would just wait until heads and intake to do a cam since a cam with stock heads and intake is just pissing in the wind..And with a aftermarket grind you can kiss you're low end good buy...start with full exhaust and a gear that would be the best as of right now.

Yeah I agree - a cam won't do you any good right now. Deffinatley go with exhaust and gears (3.73 or 4.10) first.
