    Should i put my cam in or not?

    I am getting ready to put my car back together and have decided that i am going to sell it and buy either a 99/01 cobra or my buddies 04 cobra. I was just wondering what you guys think i should do, put my cam in or not? Would i get that much more money putting it in and selling it or should i just leave it out and sell it internally stock? my cam is just a TFS stage one. please all opinions are welcomed

    Don't waste your time installing it, its not worth the time and money.

    I'd tend to agree that you not really going to get a return. Plus the 94-95's computers can get pissed off real easy and it may not like the cam, so you may have to spend more money on a tune. Now if there was any chance of keeping the car, I'd put it in

    From what i've heard that cam is acceptable by our computers. If your worried bout the price of installing it can you really afford an 04 cobra??

    not about the price of installing it. I was putting it in myself. I just dont think i should waste my time when it really wont break me or save me when selling the car. Also i dont want to take the chance of having it tuned and the more i think about it, most people are looking for a stock car so i am going to leave it out and sell it.
