not unless you have computer work and other things to let the engine breathe better, intake header and exhaust.
They won't work unless you get your computer tuned so it's not worth it.
Stage 2 works without a tune but only if you can live with an engine light all the time.
I'd go with stage 1 or the turbo cams and see what that gets you.

You're not gonna want to drive on the road w/ a stage three , unless you're gonna be racing A LOT, you should just get stage 1 or 2

But can you use them while waiting for a turbo? or do you think it would be better to get the Stage 1 cams instead?

Fair enough. Thanks.
