You guys are correct about these mods helping in 1/4mi times.. but his post was for adding power. Unless he was mistaken in what he posted(power mods vs. all mods) then I say a cam is the way to go. N2O is too, be he seems too skeptical at this point to mess with it. You need to be completely comfortable with N2O in order to effectively run it IMO. Not trying to say anybody is wrong just re-directing the thread toward his original post

400 will get a cam but it will run like **** without a good tune. especially if he gets up in the 220 224 range. i say a stall converter, or a tune.

I agree with TXSilverado, Plus he'll still have to pay for insallation unless he's doing all the work himself. Getting a cam for just more aggressive sound doesn't seem like the best thing to do. I would get all other supporting mods first. JUST MY TWO CENTS.
