with the texas speed package you would need to add a tune and pushrods which would make up the price difference.
and with the speed inc package you would need a timing chain and possibly an oil pump.
That speed inc cam is pretty mild compared the magic stick so i mean it all just depends on what you want.

I would start by adding a NX wet kit for a 1/3 of the price first and have a 11 sec. car with some drag radials and V-6 rear springs. But that is just me I can't see spending that much $ for the et improvement you'll see.
Please pm me and I'll give you much more info in detail.
That's my 2 centsDon't be afraid of the bottle!!! Be afraid of your tune!!!

the Texas Speed package w/the LT's and y-pipe would put you well over 400+rwhp.
I have the 'first package' minus the ASP pulley and i'm sitting at 409rwhp...
if you could go bigger than a 224 cam in that package you would be pleased and don't forget an Ls6 intake or FAST intake...2018 CTS-V: °°668rwhp/658rwtq°°

not sure what you mean by affecting the 'brakes' but for a DD car, anything over a 230-232 would be too much. i believe the MS4 cam is a pretty healthy cam that is well over the 230 range for peak HP/TQ numbers. the 224 is a great DD cam with great under the curve power (non-peak, nice strong flat TQ curve), but so would a 228/230 cam. it would be your preference in the end.
specs on my Comp Cam: 224/224 .581/.581 @112lsa
if push comes to shove you can always call them and inform them of you goals and they would be able to suggest a suitable cam for you...

black- 2000 nhra edition formula
id go with the text speed package, just change the cam to a 228/228. magic stick is alittle big for dd.
get an ls2 timing chain, it costs less and is good.2000 nhra edition formula
a few bolt ons, 379 rwhp

Just a thought here. If you are doing heads, you really dont need that much cam to reach 400rwhp. The 224 cam (+ pushrods), ls6 heads and tune should get you there easily and no need for all that other fluff stuff. And it would make it much more daily driveable.
