How streetable is the tr230 cam? I have a m6 with 4.10's ? Thanks

 

thats exactly what i have. Its fine. Just make sure you get it tuned w/ LS1 edit.

 

Hey verbs,Hows the cam sound?

 

I have a friend runing it with stock 3.42's maybe he'll come in on this one.

Any other info you guys have on this cam? pros and cons?How does the cam pull? Thanks

 

what kinda car are you looking to build. is it gonna me mostly a daily, more time at the strip, ect.? and what other mods do you have?

 

I have all mods with stage 2 heads that I'll be puttin in with the cam.The car will be drove everyday. thanks

 

damn, you'll be making some great power with this cam . consider the x1 cam too, its similar to the 230 and puts out great numbers as well.

with your 4.10's and a good tune the car should be very streetable.

 

For Stage II heads, look into the TSP 231/237 cam also. Very streetable.

 

I have this cam with stock 3.42's and dyno tunned and it is perfectly fine to drive, even as a daily driver with the 3.42's. With the 4.10's it will be even better.

The cam makes great power. I dynoed 403rwhp with stock heads. The cam peaked at about 6200-6300 and makes gobbs of torque. It will also work great with stage 2 heads probably anywhere from 430-450rwhp with the right tune.

 

I have the TR230 in my A4 car and its driven everyday 50 miles. ITs a great cam and I highly recomend it.

i love my TR230. i got the numbers in the sig with it and stock heads. i'm adding a set of AS stage 2 heads and a ported throttle body and am hopping to get above 440rwph. it is a great cam and with a good tune is still very streetable. you might also consider the tr224 since this is your daily driver. i drive my car daily and sometimes i wish it didn't lope quiet as hard. it can get obnoxious at times since my exhaust is so loud. but, most the time i love it.

 

Hey Kit

You are going to have a kickass setup .Great choice on the heads also.
You will make some kickass #`s on your m6.

 

offaxis,

i'm very excited about the new setup. i think it is going to be a great performer at the track. it's just to bad the heads won't be done for about a month but it is well worth the wait.

the numbers you got from you car (along with many other cars) is one of the reasons i decided to go with AS heads. AS heads and the tr230 seem to always make killer numbers.

 

How about this cam for good low end torque? I have a very big cam in my car and want to swap it for some much needed low end torque.

 

I'm going to have the patriot 5.3 heads and the tr230 put in soon.Thanks for all the info on the cam.

 

Hey Darkside

Good luck with the combo!! Keep us updated on how you make out.

You have a PM

 

this is one of the reasons i went with this cam. i have never seen a "big cam" that has a better torque curve than the tr230. it's almost the same as the tr224 when you overlay them.
