Stock motor has too low static compression ratio for such a big cam like Yuminashi's.
I put one in a Vario 150 stock (which has the same engine as the new gen PCX150 LED).
Results are not too good. Went back to stock. Yuminashi cam will benefit a bigger engine + much higher compression ratio.

My personal opinion is you should not try a racing cam in a stock motor with low compression (10.6).
The valves will never touch the piston, but performance wise I don't know.
Should be a good project to try.

So, when replacing the cam, what else is being changed in the system along with it? Larger intake and exhaust as well as spark/fuel maps(calibration)?

Depends on how deep your pocket is and subsequently your overall setup.

Larger intake and exhaust should only be done when fitting a bigger piston.

Re-tuning the fuel map with a good fuel controller piggyback will be absolutely necessary.
