Post $1500 available

good news for me guys...the wifey pretty much just gave me my x-mas present. its $1500 to spend on the stang. i've been wanting some comp cams (XE270AH) for a while. price will be like $750 for cams and springs. dont know how much installation and tuning will be though. but i've been thinking more and more about a KB blower. i could buy the cams right now or just save for a few more months for the KB. what would u guys do if u had $1500 available? spend it right now on cams or just wait another 6-8 months for KB blower. give me your inputs.

cams: loapy rumble and a fair amount of hp and tq gain

KB: somewhat loapy rumbe, supercharger whine, great amounts of hp/tq gains

MMM Hmm. Tell her to hold on to it all year while you save up the rest for the blower kit.

Hmm 25 hp -vs- around 200 hp? No contest. Forget the cams cause you wont have enough money for them by the time you pay for labor. You might be able to handle the KB installation yourself if your pretty good with cars. Just stick the blower on it.
