How much would installation cost for that? Cause I know I'm not able to do that.

to tell you the truth i don't have any idea. i haven't let a shop work on my car since i was a kid. the thing about upgrading the cam on a late model vehicle is you will also have to get the computer upgraded as well to work with the cam. frankly ... i wouldn't waste my time doing a cam upgrade to a 2.8. if you have a 2.8 and want more horsepower, buy you a nitrous kit. you can get a kit for about $300 sometimes less on ebay and the nitrous kit will do a heck of alot more for your ego than the cam upgrade. nitrous kits for throttle bodys are fairly simple to install also. sick

Don't bother changing cam on a 2.8. The only thing you will notice is a rougher idle, and the butt dyno won't feel any difference.

The 3.4 is a better deal, but it still takes a lot of work without forced induction or nitrous. See the sticky on upgrading a 3.4.
