Ok so I called Comp Cams today and asked them those ?'s and they told me....

The cams are direct bolt in....no grinding. The part number I was looking at was a stage 2 cam. It doesn't require a wideband o2 sensor nor an adj. fuel pressure regulator. They also said they would recommend a tune. They recommended Diablo...I told them about trifecta and they said that would be fine. And he said it wouldn't throw a CEL. I would not have to get adj. cam gears. I did ask them about the 2.4 manifold swap and he said that I would lose hp at the beg. but gain it back in the mid and high end. But he also recommended valve springs with this cam. I did ask him would this cam be good with a turbo set up and he said it would be fine. He also recommended if I was going turbo one day that it would be nice to get the 2.4 manifold.

......id check my sources on those cams for ur car bud. i know u called them, but im not buying it because of other things ive read.

what they are saying about the 2.4 manifold is true. but its not needed, hell i didnt get it

Hes wrong. you need to press on the cam reluctor wheel and shorten the cam, you MUST cut off the end of the intake cam

The part number I was looking at was a stage 2 cam. It doesn't require a wideband o2 sensor nor an adj. fuel pressure regulator. They also said they would recommend a tune. They recommended Diablo...I told them about trifecta and they said that would be fine. And he said it wouldn't throw a CEL.

It doesnt require a wideband, but one is beneficial for proper tuning.
You cant install an adjustable FPR without reengineering the fuel system.
Yes you need a tune.
Diablo doesnt offer a tuning solution for the 2007-08 L61
Trifecta will be fine, it and LS2Edit are the only options.
It will throw a CEL if you dont tune.

I would not have to get adj. cam gears.

You dont HAVE to but as with any cam they make it possible to dial in and properly install the cams

I did ask them about the 2.4 manifold swap and he said that I would lose hp at the beg. but gain it back in the mid and high end.

Yup, youll do that even without the cams, you should get the 2.4 manifold now, regardless of whether you get cams or not

But he also recommended valve springs with this cam.

I'd recommend them too.

I did ask him would this cam be good with a turbo set up and he said it would be fine. He also recommended if I was going turbo one day that it would be nice to get the 2.4 manifold.

If youre going turbo you should wait and get the turbo cams. You should get the 2.4 manifold regardless, its absolutely the most hp per dollar of any mod shy of nitrous.
