You need a power commander and the complete airbox from fuel atv to take advantage of your mods. otherwise its a waste

Basically you can put the cams in but you won't feel much increase in power. You make more power by having more air and more fuel. Think of it this way, your exhaust allows more air to exit the motor which is good. K&N adds a little more air into the motor but not much compared to a real intake. The cams will push a lot more air through the motor than stock, but you don't have enough air coming in as it is without the intake. Then if you get an intake and get all that air flowing then you need a fuel controller to even it out otherwise it will run too lean and blow your motor. Long post, hope it helped

ya normally stage 3 is used for a larger piston along with a full pipe/intake/programmer!
you may be better of with kx450 cams or stage 2 hotcams!
best mod intake this will give you a nice increase but you will have to have a pc3 or other programmer to have it run right!
i think running stage 3 cams with your mods you may damage your motor?
