Will a new cam really help?

My buddy says that if I want more out of my civic, that I should get a new camshaft. Is this true? I am going to get a CAI and a catback too. What do you guys recommend that I buy to increase the overall performance of the car? I don't a turbo or supercharger, that would be to much.

K20 engines are already very well optimized....like the F22.

Getting N/A power with cams and a 2.0 block is a waste imho.
2.4, 2.6 liter bottoms can run larger Stage 3 & 4 cams that will put you near 300 whp on 91 octane, depending on your compression ratio....or over 300 whp on E85.
