Red face Question re: power w/ cam swaps.

I've been interested in an IS300 for a while now, but have reservations about their power.

Does anyone here know what an expected power output would be for a 2JZGE with some basic upgrades, such as intake/header/muffler along with a stage 2 cam swap and probably a chip designed for the new cams?

And I mean *REAL* numbers, from a dyno; not just a random guess.

If I knew I could 300hp reliably, and without forced induction, I'd be a happy man.

There's this guy's sig:

/*
2001 e-Shift with BC Stage 2 cams - Greddy e-Manage Ultimate - K&N FIPK2 - Mazzuri Super (v1) - Custom Borla Exhaust (x2) - Unorthodox Cam Gear (+2 degrees) - Eibach Prokit (springs / sways) - Bilstein HD shocks

219whp & 216lb/ft
*/
Not sure what stock whp would be, but in that thread, he said the Stage 2 cams netted him about 10-15whp. That sounds REALLY low for a cam swap, though.

IS300s arent much for speed or hp unless forced induction comes into play.
