I dont mean to rag on you at all in this post man. But this is what I hate about people in a wider sense, they think that because teh car doesn't make lots of power in stock form that NA is crap.

Not that the whole point of the engine is meant for a econobox and not a sports car.

Other then a page of text to explain how cams work. The basic is that more duration and more overlap move the power band up the power band. I don't really have time to explain now maybe when I get home or tomorrow.
