I would recommend only getting a cam gear for the intake side....you don't want a CEL....it will be costly....

DON'T GET THE CAM GEAR FOR THE EXHAUST SIDE....or you will have to shell out a lot of cash for a new VCT solenoid.

Nobody has done a cam on the exhaust side....and from my experience....it is not a good one.
