Nizpro does them.. but they're not exactly what you'd call cheap.

nizpro expect 160-165rwkw with only a fuel pressure regualtor and edit, thats not bad. But like fnp said, very expensive, I mean $2000 for cam and spring install is a bit much.

Now that I think about it, You don't need a new cam because the cam varies and you can make it change from the ECU, this just rings a bell, can't remember where I read it.

Your talking about VCT. That only changes the timing of the opening/closing of the valves. Cant change duration, lift, etc (i.e. everything you want to change for more power)
