I like the idea of having alittle more intake duration with the TR Blower cam,
but I would imagine the GT2-3 cam makes a lot of cylinder pressure.

The SC2 looks like a ordinary N/A cam. The other choices i listed seem
built more for FI.
You need to do some more searching then. A local here gained 80 RWHP from the (now) SC2 (used to be SC1 before they came out with a smaller one) on stock size motor with a P1. He lost a couple psi of boost, but gained a ton of HP. Just shows how much more efficiently that cam is at getting the air thru the engine. The SC2 is a great blower cam. But do what ya want man

Did the local guy gain 80rwhp over a GT2-3 cam or over a stock cam?
I did some more searches and the GT2-3 and TR Blower cams gave
an average of 50rwhp-60rwhp gain over stock cams. I don't mind
giving up a few peak HP in exchange for a nice idle.

It was 80 over a stock cam. And this cam idles smooth! Mine idles at 650rpm easily.

You know what..i think i'll just go with one of Speed, Inc's SC1 or SC2 cause
i will be installing GTP ported 6.0 liter heads and the more aggressive cam should
help fill the cylinders at low speeds until the blower kicks in. Thanks.

Does anyone know what the overlap is for the SC1 and SC2
cams? Nevermind...i found a overlap calculator on the net.
I'm liking the SC1 but since i have a A4 which is alittle more
tricky to get it to idle in all situations. The SC1 222/228
but i would see if they can make it on a 115lsa or even a 116lsa.
