Hmm, that's the first I've seen/heard of the TU1.5

I currently have a TU2, and it's obviously more aggressive, but the street manners are fine. Sounds awesome too.

(It will probably be for sale here shortly...changing up my setup)

The TU1.5 is a new grind as of this year. It has great street manors and has made over 1000rwhp in one of our customer's cars so far. It's a great all around camshaft! If you have any other questions feel free to shoot me an email.

In for some sound clips.

I plan to run an ls9 cam, but I don't think I'll be happy with the idle on my 88mm 5.3.

Nick- how would this cam work in a m6 car, on the freeway at 1500rpm?

Unfortunately we do not have a sound clip because of the cam being so new.

What is the cubic inch of the motor? What gear are you running?

We ran it in our Lsx powered Hearse. The cam worked very well in a stock LQ4 with an S480R. The lope is rather mild and drives nicely.

We went 9.99@137 @ 5200#'s

Any photos/videos of said Hearse? How much boost? Very impressive.
