Anyone know where to get perf. cams for 1.8t? Is it worth it?

Re: Anyone know where to get perf. cams for 1.8t? Is it worth it?
I have them on my APR stage III Passat. Got them from Ron's Parts in Canada. I had them on my old K04 setup. I consider them a waste with that setup but worth it if you have something like the stage III. Hope to dyno the car in two weeks. I guess then I will see.

It all depends on the flow restriction...
The exhaust is by far the flow limiter on the engine. Even the stock turbo flows much better on a better manifold. On a flowbench the head really opens up with the cams.
Personally, replace all the ludicrous tubing from the turbo to the intake, replace the exhaust manifold and downstream exh., then go for the cams.
