Question about cams.
How necessary is a tune when more aggressive cams are installed? The reason I ask is because I have access to a shop with a certified mechanic who could assist me with the labor, but there is no dyno at the shop or any other type of tuning equipment or know how. I have less than six months left here before I transfer back to the States, so part of me wants to just wait until then to get it done, but that other nagging part of me is way too anxious about getting it done NOW NOW NOW!
Any thoughts?

a must. your going to be drawing in more air and suff and that needs to be corrected with the tune. but anytime you do anything internally, a retune is a must. if you dont go to a big cam, you could probably maybe run without a retune but you wont be able to get near the performance that you could possibly

Good point. I guess I will just have to be patient then. Being patient sucks.
