rpw stage 1 cam or rrm stage 2 cam?

any input on which camshaft to get? Its going into a 2004 ralliart with sri, exhaust, header/dp, piggyback, udp. I can't find much info on the rpw cam's other then the information I've gained through speaking with them personally. They've recommended their stage 1 cam over their stage 2 for my plans with the ralliart. Cost differs greatly here as well - ~840 CAN to get the rrm cam, ~530 CAN to get the rpw cam.

If anyone has experience with either, I'd greatly appreciate your input!

I have no experience with RPW but i know for a fact that the RRM camshaft is awesome, it gives you huge amounts of touque around the mivec switch over point. 3-4k rpms is like a whole new car. Top end gains are noticable to. So much tourque...

I have a buddy running the RPW cam works great. Just make sure you set the valve lash according to Mitsu specs and procedure.

Im going turbo on my RA soon. Im thinking about going with the head and cam before I get the turbo and then get it tuned all at once.
