Tell me about my cam!!! As you can see in my signature I have a couple mods done to my car. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to drive the thing yet. (Still waiting on a couplle other parts to come in) I am completely illiterate when it comes to knowing what to look for when picking a cam. I called up comp and they spec'd out this cam for my setup. 224/230 .581/.592 114LSA. I am just curious as to what kind of 1.HP/TQ numbers I might be looking at. 2. What my effective RPM range should be around. 3. Agressiveness of the cam in regards to idle, responsiveness, etc. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Are you asking about where the powerband is going to be and what kind of idle you will get?
I would think that it would be around 1500-6XXX.
You will get an ever so slight lope at idle due to the -1° of overlap. It will probably have a stock idle feel to it for the most part.
Powerwise I would think that you would be around 385-395rwhp and on the spray maybe in the ballpark of 475-490.

Go to AFR airflowresearch.com their cam uses CompCams XE-R lobes
224/228 .581 114LSA
these two cams are very silmar and very street friendly but also lopy
2000-7000rpm powerband
this is a street/stip cam
