Default Tr 230/236 Tr 236/230

What are the advantages/disadvantages to these 2 cams? Is the 236/230 for cars with better exhaust?

TR 236/230 .602/.575 112 LSA

TR 230/236 .590/.598 112 LSA

I will also be spraying the car 100-150 shot, so I am leaning toward the 230/236. I have a 6-speed car, my mods include pacesetter LT's, ORY, cutout, lid, FTRA, I will have 4.11's and an LS6 intake.

The other one would be a better forced induction or stock(ish) exhaust setup.
One is a traditional split (230/236) and one is a reverse (236/230).

If you are gonna spray even with that smaller sized shot the 230/236 would be a better option IMO. You would generally want the exhaust opened up a tad more. So go with your leaning feeling.

Do you have a dyno graph? 399 is stout through an A4, not so sure about the tq number though.

the 230/236 will be alot better for nitrous than the 236/230 cam. I plan on adding a 125shot in the near future for shitsngiggles and a nice 10 second slip.

I love the 230/236 design, not sure how close it is to the Comp Cams grind but its an amazing cam.
