Adj Cams?

I running Adj Cams set at 0 right now. I am thinking about trying to squeeze alittle more power out of my current setup. What would be some advantages/ dis-advantages of adjusting of adjusting the cams?
Im goin to put the Int -2 / Ext 0 just to see how it does. Just alittle testing and tuning. I know Dyno would be best but we only have 1 AWDyno and its expensive. I also hear evos like to run +2/+2? any info to verify this?
any input would be nice.

Adjusting camgears often gives you more tq, and hp too but mostly for the wideness of the powerband. There is just no excuse for not doing it - especially fi you're going for the big numbers

i dont think I have ever seen cam gears give an output worth the work and money they are. I have just seen them move the powerband to the left or right, but same numbers overall

If you want more power I personally would go with a bit more agressive cam, like the S2s or Kelford 272s. On your 35R you will see 30+hp probs. You also have all the supporting mods! Good luck with the ETS3.5" exhaust. Its mean as ****!
