lun 227/233 112 lsa
tsp 228r 112lsa

my goal is to be mid 12s after cam

Man, this is a hard one for anyone to answer. Its your car, so do some research and try to figure out what you want out of your car. Some people like big cams and some like smaller cams.

yea iv been researching for like 3 months now im just stuck on what to get i was gonna get the ms3 from tsp but found out i need like 11to1 compression to really get the power it can push out.. how is the cam you have doing at the track and with drive-ability

KevinR

I won't have any track numbers till probably next weekend cause its been too cold out here. Drivability is good, but that's because I have a really good tuner. It pulls hard as hell and really fun to drive. I've heard a lot of good out of the MS4 and I had the TRex in my car for about a week, but that didn't work out too well for me. But a lot of people like it. These are both pretty big cams though.

batman_ls1

o nice yea i want to get a big cam but at the same time i dont know wats the biggest i can go on my car without over caming it

KevinR

TRex is the biggest you can go on stock heads. I can't remember the exact specs but I think they are 242/248 608/612 on a 110 lsa. Any bigger than that and you are going to run into some PTV clearance problems, if that's what you mean by "overcamming"

batman_ls1

o wow i didnt know that but im talking about for the mods i have done to it... by the way for the tune i was thinking on going with the mail order tune by tsp wat do u think or should i find some one good in town better?

KevinR

I've never done a mail order tune so I can't help you on that one. I have heard good and bad from them though. I, personally, would find a good tuner around town. But that is all up to you. Call someone at Texas Speed or Thunder. They can give you all the info you are looking for. I dealt with Shane and John over at Thunder, and they are really good at helping people with questions like you have.

You want to go mid 12s? Your car should be capable of that as it sits with some slicks.

I am cam only with the Texas Speed Torquer2 (232/234 595/598) and went 11.83 @ 116.

batman_ls1

my bad i meant to put mid 11s im running a 12.9 and 106mph with stock tune


im from Tucson AZ and a lot of my buddy's have the same mods as me but there tune and there only doing mid 13s i dont get why im faster but im not complaining either haha

batman_ls1

You're buddy might not have the driving skill you have.

I can't complain about the Torquer 2 in any way. I daily drove it for quite awhile. Good manners, still got decent gas mileage, and made good power.

batman_ls1

doin high 11s sounds like good power to me to wat type of gas mile did u get
