    Default Daily driving cams???

    Ok so I'm looking into getting stage 1 cam for a D16y8. But I want to make sure its ok for daily driving and reliable too. Because this is going into a girls car .....She has an intake, header, vafc, and msd ignition but wants some more power. I was looking into the Skunk 2 stage 1 cam because I've always liked the Skunk 2 brand. But I'm more wondering, will I have to tune this thing??? And is the Skunk 2 a good choice or should I see about other brands too??? Just wanting some more info on this without having to build the motor or going turbo, just think of it as just another bolt on...., or would another bolt be a better choice????

    Thanks.....

    You will be fine with a stage 1- you dont HAVE to get a tune but it will help the power.
