So I'm in the middle of an engine rebuild, and I figured now would be the best time to replace the stock cam with something more aggressive (motor is a stock 1.5 FI). Ultimately I settled on the 223 Degree Duration Regrind Street Cam available at MWB. I'm not looking for massive gains in the power department, but I would like to wake the motor up a bit.
I know I'll need (likely thicker) valve shims which I'll order after getting the cam and taking measurements.
What I don't know is how will this affect anything else; like the fuel injection system. WIll I have to run different timing than stock? Is there anything else I should know that wouldn't make this a fairly simple bolt on upgrade?
