Whats The Highest Youve Spun Your TREX To??
Who in here has spun their trex the highest. I have taken mine up to 6400 but im still on a stock bottom end. Is there anyone that goes higher then this?

Well its my daily driver, I plan on a forged 408 soon. Im just wondering when the trex quits pulling. I remember a graph going up to 7200 with a trex but I cant seem to find it.

408+Trex= one bad motha! I can spin this cam all the way to 7100 rpm with no problems on my a4. It just keeps pulling on the top end. i was very pleased, since I went from a stock ls1 on the juice, to a 408 iron block (with trex cam) with nitrous. Good luck with the setup and keep us up dated!

Mine will hit the 7400 RPM limiter pretty fast! I shift around 7100 normally, but I swear it still feels like it's pulling hard past that. Your only just starting to use the potential of this cam when it reaches 5500 RPM and above...

i've seen 1 guy at the track rev it to 8000k on a forged 382 all bore. i sat in the car during his last 1/8 mile run and couldn't believe my eyes as he burried the stock tach then the shift light came on a few milliseconds later
