Default rpw cams vs gt cams

two questions
1) which one has more lift and duration

2) do you buy all 3 stages of the rpw cams? or just one (does each stage effect a different gear?)

gt cam is a STOCK cam... its just a tad more aggresive than all the other hyundai cams

The rpw cams are RACE cams... A LOT more aggresive than hyundai cams

You dont need all stages
You pick one... how insane are YOU?!?! wink
stage 1... lightly
stage 2... moderately
stage 3... tongue.gif

The more performance you gain from a cam the less 'street drivable' it is. The more aggressive the cam the rougher the idle, and the more low end you loose.

So if I have the beta engine and I drive my car back and forth to work everyday, the best cam that I should get is the 1.8 cam or the gt cam? Help me out here before I make a mistake in the long run.
