Hey i was wonderin what rockers to get with my gtp, you can see my mods below and i plan on a vs cam in the future. any suggestions?
 


with the cam youre not going to want rockers unless you only get 1.7s. honestly its a waste of money at this point if youre going cammed later.
 
cammed.period.we speak from experience.the end.good bye.talk to you later. ok i will stop lol
 


Whose doing the installs? Rockers you can do yourself, Cam install takes a lot more time and money if it's not you doing the work, the LIM, rockers and Lifters need to be taken out as well as a new timing chain, possibly higher springs, things add up.

1.9 rockers + 105# springs or

XP cam and 105# springs, new timing chain, plus a few gaskets and someone local with a tuner to tune it, I doubt a mail order pcm will be a good tune or worth the money to find out.

What are your goals for times? Remember that your transmission will probably hate you and kill itself with the more mods...
 
wait for a cam. midrang power is 100x better than rockers.

Rockers are nice, but nothing is better then a cam.
I started with 1.9's then got a vs cam then to a S3 cam.
