    It's not a 350. What are your goals?

    Remember, those are supercharger exclusive cams, and there is a lot more power on the table to be gained by cams for a forced induction vehicle over an NA. I think OP may be more inclined to take advantage of cam gears over the actual cams themselves. Couple that with HPTuners and I think the OP would be very happy with the power gains to be had.

    I was under the impression based on those that have participated int he GB, that the cam was customizable. So one could in theory opt for a NA appropriate profile.

    Ahh, yeah definitely could! He is wanting to go FI by next year apparently though, so maybe it would be worth it for him after all.

    I did not know that, okay, that changes the game.

    Me personally for all the time needed to install cams on top of all the additional money needed for the cams (valve springs as well) I never did see it as worth it, but if you want that nice cam lope and have the time, energy, and money to burn, why not.

    I settled for cam gears and even with those, for all the labor involved I have not installed them yet.

    My dream truck is and F350 turbo diesel.
    Thinking about pink slipping one that I see everyday where I live. Lol nah . Using this truck as a small investment and to mess around with , I’m from Hawaii and I know people will buy Tacoma’s that is worth there money .
    I bought my 2015 Tacoma from Michigan and got it shipped here to Hawaii , spent a total of 25k total including shipping with only 23xxx miles , awesome condition. I always wanted a nice/fast Tacoma Lol , but looking forward to a F350 when I’m done playing with my Toy :)
