Quoted from the CMS Website

"CMS Stage 3
Again our Stage 3 cam has had the same amount of testing as the Stage 2. With again more torque across the range it comes alive from approx 2600rpm until redline depending on set up. The Stage 3 has a lopy idle & still is ECU friendly, this cam must have ISC, TPS & valve spring modification carried out. SOUNDS GREAT AT IDLE.......Vernier gear required"

Do your research lad. There is more to performance that just bolting it on and bigger is not always better.

Package that I am working on includes Stage 3 head with 2a cam, but there are reasons for that combo.

Have you upgraded your Valve springs when you had the head done?

What port work and valve work did you get done with the head?
