Don't forget you'll *have to* get your computer reprogrammed to fit the cam, or the car won't run worth a crap, and may not stay running at all when idling....

The *really* mean cams you've heard are solid lifter cams, which shouldn't be used except on a serious race motor.... You can get some/most of what you want by just getting a cam with a long duration. Keep in mind, this significantly raises your RPM peak, and your stock motor isn't good for much over 6 grand.
