Re: how much of a difference would this make

If you are asking about PROM tuning, there is a lot of room for improvement with even a stock engine. Since you have no air injection, it would be appropriate to turn that off in the program. With the cam change, the WOT (open loop) fuel trims are really going to need a change, as well as the spark advance tables, since the dynamic compression at a given RPM is likely considerably different from stock.
