Default Stage 2 camshaft ideas?

Hey guys,
I was just wondering if anyone was bought a decent stage 2 camshaft, and if so can you please contact me with your thoughts. Thanks

Pretty sure the only aftermarket cams for the tC are Brian Crower cams. And in that, I believe only 2-4 people have actually run them.

There is a reason why not many people run cams in these cars. Either they do very very little for the money or they require tuning along with the extensive cost of the cam.

I have a friend with a tC running the BC stage 2 cams along with fully built head, block, Ptunning turbo kit and his car runs great! I'm currently doing a build with my tC and asked him for some advise and he stated that he saw some considerable hp gains when he went with the fully built head along with his AEM EMS. I will agree with Spicy that if you're putting in cams, in order to get the most out of them you need the supporting mods and a good tune. All that can get pricey which IMO is the reason why most don't go that route.
