Anyone want to make a newbie make some good power?

480-500 on what dyno? You won't get to that level on a green at DB. I would also skip the cams, valve springs, retainers, and head studs/gasket. You could meet your goals on map's dynojet/DB shootout mode without those parts and a Shane tune.

Also, fp4r's are kick ass cams for IX's. Not sure off the top of my head if the specs are different from 8 to 9, but it doesn't matter right now. GSC S2's like morningwood mentioned are also good cams, a bit bigger than the 4r's. I know the people I have talked to that have run the 4r's have commented on the quicker spool they can provide once some playing around with the MIVEC settings is done while tuning. They are definitely not too big for a green though.
