Thats not a FI cam i`ve ever heard recommended if it`s on a 112lsa. Maybe nitrous, but not a turbo or blower.

This cam IS A TURBO/ Blower cam from Compcams, is not a F1,but is a Custom GRIND however. The cam was built for my turbo setup by Comp, but sold the kit, now need to sell the cam. If not sure please call Comp Cams at 1800 999-0853 to confirm that it is for turbo/ blower setup and give the specs and the custom grind #s that I have on the ebay link above
Thanx,
Chris

I agree, a 112lsa is not good for forced induction. you bleed off too much boost right out your exhaust valve...

Old cam was 228/224 on 112, 112 ICL, slightly lower on the lift. It was VERY doggy on the bottom until the turbos came up on boost. Screamer then, but not the best cam IMO.

the new cam is MUCH better on bottom end response, but the rest of the setup is different. So who really knows if it was the cam or not.

FWIW, new cam is 251/248 .695/.687 115LSA 113ICL, solid roller. Still 348 cubes for both. This cam has about 15 degrees more overlap than the previous, 17 versus 2 believe it or not.

I had the old cam idle at 900 or so, this one idles at 1200 and sounds nasty as hell

The 112LSA cam was "ok", it made good power. But it was probably not optimum.

If i had the chance to do the hydraulic cam over, i'd go atleast 114LSA and a tad more lift.

just my .02
