I know MTI is the company, but where can you find the R1. I remember MTI use to have a sponsor link. I cannot seem to find their website either.

MTI no longer does performance. they just sell performance cars now. but to the OP, look up a member named offaxis. he ran that MTI R1 and i think put over 400rwhp with it.

Here is a link to my post when I swaped to the r1 cam from the TR230/224.

Anyway its a great all around cam . If you arent all wraped up in the latest and greatest or cam of the week you will find you got yourself a great cam there.
