This all sound very interesting, but what can you tell me about the cam? I guess the specs are still a secret, but how about the caracteristics? How streetable is it? I have a stock 2000 A4 and I´m planing on cam+edit and bolt-ons.

there are plans to try this cam in a car with only a lid and filter the owner is waiting to get a few more miles on it before putting a cam in he has only 530miles so far <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

as for a A4 car it has not been tested yet im not sure it would go well with out a good converter

when it gets tested Ken will let you know the results
and Ken left for vacation today so we all have to wait and the wait is killing me

Even after the cam is in guys, the tracks are going to be horrible. The weather has been sooo cold here, with so much snow, I don't see the tracks coming around for quite some time. Usually Atco would have been open for atleast half of the Sundays since the New Year, this year they were only open 1 day.
Maybe a trip a little further down south is needed?

I can't wait that long!!!!!! I'm gonna have the cash in about 2 - 4 weeks!!!! And right now i'm up between this cam and one other, and wanna see what this does first before I make my decision!!!! Boy oh boy, do I hope the weather gets nice by you guys soon, I wanna see the results!!!! By the way, rambirds car has lightweight flywheel, carbon fiber driveshaft, and stock 10-bolt w/ 3.42's, right? Wouldn't that make for a bad drag car?! He ain't gonna be able to launch that thing too hard, if he does, 10-bolt go BOOM!!!!!!! I wish you guys could get this thing in a car w/ a 12-bolt and 4.10's, so you can launch the **** out of it and really see what it can do!!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[worship]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> 12-bolt and slicks!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I have alot of goodies in my ride to launch that cam at say 5500 rpm's thru a strange 12 bolt with 4.10 gears on a set of MT et streets! I will also have a set of stage II heads on my car as well before this cam really gets out from Absolute Speed.

The idle sound's very intimidating. Sound's alot like an old school small block with a big stick.
