changing cams is not worth it on the 5s. changing cams alone will not yeild much power, u need a head that flows more air. one of the best things about the 5s in the low end TQ, u will lose it by changing cams. not worth it if your gonna and boost. save your money buy the 3s head and go from there, or just boost the 5s.

umm this is not true at all
20whp can be had up top with cams.
jim snoddgrass made 147whp tuned with cams.
a 5sfte with cams would be great, cause you really dont loose anything down low, and big gains are had up top.

well u cant simply add a more aggresive cam and except an extra 20hp, i bet he had some head work, high compression pistons are not a bad idea either with cams. Also if u get to aggessive witht he cams u will have a rough idel. cams for the 5sfe will produce power but all the coinciding intake parts are not built for power.
