yes they are the supercharger cams
If I recall the superchager cams are not much different than either the stage 1 or stage 2 n/a cams, i forget which one tho.
So i don't think it would be terrible, other issue is you would need to get it re-tuned to get it to run right with the cams.

The "Supercharger" cams are just the N/A Stage 1 intake and N/A Stage 2 exhaust cams. With a tune i'd image you might see 5-10hp gain. Remember you
NEED to upgrade your valvesprings with any of comps cams.
thanks for letting me know i was just going to install them im about to buy the valvesprings first
ill probably go with supertech

People have had good luck with Supertech 78lb valvesprings(i actually have a set on the way from THmotorsports.com). I have to blower cams too.
Yes people will say that you can run stock springs and that they have. But there is a post somewhere on JBO where they measured the coil bind of stock eco springs and they were not even close to the lift of comp's smallest cams.
i just went there and i see they are even cheaper than ebay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
You could put them in a while. I would stay out of full throttle situations until its tuned, and tuning it for something that it will not be is a waste of time.
