Well I've been looking at bumping up the power in my 5sfe just for the sake of having a little more oomf on the highway and such, don't need a street machine or anything. I was going to do a full exhaust/intake, and adjust timing and such but can't do anything with it on a 99, and with the cams geared together you can't really do much with them to change overlap or anything. I found the Webcams 294 setup to be rated pretty well for a mild cam, puts power where it needs to be, etc. I just don't want to bother with a piggyback or standalone with this car, after tuning my WRX that way it just isn't worth it without all the performance to go with it.
Any other suggestions on cams? Maybe ones that are better/cheaper (cheaper is good lol) or a shop that will weld and re-grind my stock cams for a good deal? -------------------- 1999 Celica GT

since cams is a big upgrade NA wise do I need a fuel regulator? no. you only need it if you're running a high flow fuel pump. what you may need are upgraded valve springs & retainers for aggressive cam profiles but that depends on how the company design the cams. JUN and HKS make some but i'm not sure if the 3S ones will fit the 5S.
