Default 232/236 with a maggie 112?

Custom comp LSR cam 232/236 .598/.601 on a 114lsa

I am on the fence about dropping about 4k for good heads/FAST intake, TB rails, etc and just going with a magnacharger instead. I already have kooks 1 7/8 and was wondering if the cam in the car now would kill the power gains of a blower? I would probably leave the spray on the car and bump it down to a 50 shot for very very limited use. What do you guys think? What kind of power could i expect? I make 400 at the wheels on motor now.

Not a good cam for the 112, I would stick to a 224 or smaller. The ideal cam for a 112 is the GT2-3 cam or LS6. The 122 would be better off with a 224 or a 54-444-11 comp shelf cam.

6* of overlap in that cam. Gonna waste boost pressure. Either add boost or raise the LSA to a 117+.

Do the maggie over the heads/cam, in that car, it will be much more enjoyable to drive. All out raw power, highway racing or drag racing, maybe not. Everyday street car, put a grin on your face everytime you turn the key, the positive displacement will fit that bill

like the others said, it is a big cam for that blower. Keep the cam small, less overlap, less wasting of boost
