also will cam gears help me out naturally aspirated more than an AFC????????

im getting board with buying cosmetic stuff i need some more performance until i get my turbo

First you should be able to find an S-AFC for $300.

Now... Yes it will help you NA, we run very rich, You can use the S-AFC to lean out the fuel curve and run better power. BUt with the S_AFC to properly tune you'll need an A/F gauge that os accurate to the thousands place for voltage and an EGT. In my next round of mods will be a S-AFC, with a Header, and the gauges I'll need in the cluster bezel from autometer.

Naturally aspirated here, with an AFC. You'll notice a difference. You'll definitely need a digital A/F gauge to tune it properly (I made the mistake and bought the one with flashy lights). With the one I have I can make general adjustments but I still need a digital gauge to fine tune it.

But I don't have it tuned properly yet, so I can't comment on the benefits

yeah the afc will always help you, just remember to do the blue wire mod, if you connect the blue wire to your o2 sensor then your afc with give you a digital read out of your o2 reading, and when tuning the afc, just remember to keep your reading .88 or above and when you tune you will know a differance.
