Heat soak is a concern with a blower. WMI does help in that regard.

Honestly the best bang for the buck IMO is a lower gear ratio
Swap in a 3.64, 3.73 or if you are really crazy a 3.91 from an X3.

The torque multiplication of a 3.73 over a stock 3.07 is 21% more.
I can attest to the seat of the pants increase. You in to the power band so much quicker. 60 mph has the engine revving at 3000rpm.

For me cams are only worth it on an all out race build.
