TQr V2 sounds better for the street. It does very well at the track too. If my car stays more of a DD I would look into a cam around this duration and lift. Im driving the MS3 with all supporting mods,IE FAST 92/92 1 7/8 headers duals BLA BLA. Its not fun in stop and go traffic. I have a good tune, but would like more power down low.

well i havent bought one yet, i have been putting all my money so far into the head work. i think the v.2 will work nicely, i have yet to pm texas speed about this decision.sorry guys this is research i should be doing but i havent got around to it yet, if anyone has tried this yet let me know how it worked. i'm most concerned about ordering a cam that the manufacturer says will work but is not 100% sure. of course i will check ptv clearance before i button her up, however i dont want to buy a cam that might work just to find out that it doesnt, know what i mean?

if your car see mostly the street then get the TV2. I have had mine before they even called it the TV2. It is tried and proven cam, and with a little bit of head work you will love it.

I was cam only for 2 years then put the heads on and the TQ down low makes it MUCH better to drive around town. The car is fun to drive and sounds good.
