How much difference will stage 2 hotcam make for my raptor.

 

not to much i guess

 

I dont know, but they say stage two is better if you have an aftermarket piston with more compression.

 

do you have to have stage one before you get stage two??? or can you go ahead and just get stage 2

 

http://www.hotcamsinc.com/inde...ts.view&productid=530e The stage 3 would make an awesome cam for the 660 if you had at least a high compression piston. Stage 1 would be a waste of time and money IMO. The stage 2 would be OK for a stock engine and should make a noticeable difference, but don't expect to blow anybody's doors off with just the cam by itself. You can go ahead and get a stage 2 or 3 without getting a stage 1. The stages are how they determine the size of the cam, 1 being smaller and 3 being larger. You can read the specs of each on the link. Lift and duration is the important #'s. Lift is how far the cam will open the valves, and duration is how long it will keep the valves open. The further and longer they are open, the more power you will make. But if your stock piston and crank doesn't have enough *** and you install a cam that is too big and open the valves too far for too long, then you could lose a lot of bottom end power.

 

ok lets say i get a stage 2 cam what else can i do to add more power and speed

Well, that depends. What mods you you have already? Intake, exhaust and engine mods?

 

Get a high compression piston and the stage 3 cam, and an aftermarket air filter.

Stage 3 is overkill without a decent port job.

 

i see i think im gonna go with the stage 2 cams, wiseco piston, comedic gaskets, and the motoworks full exhaust system
