If you're looking to give your 4.8 or 5.3-liter engine a serious boost, the TSP Stage 1 Turbo Cam is where it’s at. This cam is tailored specifically for smaller cubic inch motors, and whether you’re running a single or twin-turbo setup, it’s designed to deliver some real power. I’ve used it myself, and I can tell you, it transforms the driving experience without losing that stock-like feel.
With specs like 212/216 duration and a lift of .600 on both sides, this cam really wakes up your engine. You’ll find yourself in the sweet spot of the operating RPM range, which spans from 1400 to 6000 RPM. What does that mean for you? A noticeable power increase—think around 45 to 50 horsepower—while still keeping your ride comfortable and manageable. Once it’s tuned, it drives just like stock, but with a whole lot more oomph.
Now, if you want to ensure everything runs smoothly, I recommend pairing this cam with TSP’s double valve springs. They add that extra reliability you want, especially when you’re pushing your engine a bit harder. And don’t forget the chromoly hardened pushrods; they’re a solid addition for turbo applications. It’s all about keeping your setup safe and sound while you enjoy the extra power.
As for fitment, this cam fits a range of vehicles, including:
Just a heads up, though—this cam is meant for competition use only, so it’s not street legal. But if you’re building something for the track or just want that sleeper vibe, this is a solid choice. It’s all about maximizing performance without giving up drivability, and the TSP Stage 1 Turbo Cam nails it.
