hey there i'm new on here but i've been reading some of the threads i still got some questions tho. First, i juss had magnaflow catback, magnaflow cat converter, pacesetter headers installed, and injen short ram. Second, why aren't there performance camshafts made for this car?!?!? what is the next thing i could do to improve performance. thank you in advanced.

well it looks like youve already answered yourre own question (in your signature), since it seems like you're going the bolt on route, the next things i'd recommed would be pulleys, and a short throw shifter, maybe motor mounts as well... or you could quit fucking around with the cheap and nearly pointless shit and get serious and get a supercharger,

Well there are camshafts on both of those sites, if you can't search and find something on 2 sites given to you, you shouldnt be messing around an engine in the first place. ESPECIALLY if you don't know what motor mounts are.
