Default Ms3?
Ive tried researching this but cant seem to find that much about it. Im planning on putting the MS3 cam in my current setup (mods in sig). Ive heard this cam reacts real well with nitrous. How well? I plan on doing a progressed 150-175 shot. Im also upgrading to a yank 3600-4000 stall. Will this setup be some what street able and what numbers do you think it will produce? What times should i be looking at?

Thanks

It can definably be street able, I drive my MS4 Daily with no problems. Its all about the tune. As far as nitrous I know you can run it but you want the higher LSA. Good luck with the cam decision. Hopefully someone will chime in with a little bit more knowledge than me on this topic.

You should be in the low 11s if it hooks

Just dont go cheap on the stall. a yank ss 4000 or VIG 3800 would be very streetable and would handle the power well. as stated above go wtih a higher LSA for better use with Nitrous. make sure your frame and suspension will be able to handle that power. You dont list anysuspension mods in your sig. youll need a full suspension setup with good tires to handle the added power.

Im not sure what was all dont to the suspension of my car. When i purchased it, it came with bolt-on slp subframe connectors, Slp strut tower brace, and not sure what else is done. I know that my car is one that was modified or what ever you want to call by slp

I dont have the heads or cam in yet but I like the stall, it is fairly loose but not bad, it takes around 2800rpm to keep up with traffic, it was $725+tax
