Default Got my TR224 114 in the mail!

Original cam ordered 224/224 .561/.561 114 LSA
Recieved cam says: 225/224.5 .565/.563 113.8 LSA

bought the complete cam kit from thunderracing.
Cant wait to get this thing installed 6 days and counting.

Dyno sheet coming soon for 2002 WS6 6-spd with following mods:

cam and tuning, airlid w/k&n, corsa catack, slp y-pipe, 160 stat, tb bypass mod.

Unfortunately headers, electric cutouts, catted y-pipe are not coming until mid december.

Here are some pics.
Wish me luck!

Thats exactly what I'm looking to get. Hoping to order the kit this week.

So the "TR224" you got was really a 225/224?

Congrat's on your cam. I am curious to see your numbers I am in the market for a cam and I have similar bolt-on's. Good luck!

well it's really a 225/224 1/2.

Actually I would be happy if I got that, it's barely going to be noticable, but alittle longer duration, alittle higher lift and a little narrower LSA should make for a tad more power. (Like I said, probably not really noticable though)

We'll see.

Ferocity02, yes the one I got was 225/224.5 . Its not a wrong order or anything like that. I guess when they use the laser to do these they get a little off sometimes and you either get lucky or unlucky?. No idea.

Thats exactly right! 225/224.5

I am happy that it is going to make more a "little" more power but then I wonder if all TR224 114 cams are just like mine?

Heres the exact cam report I recieved. (check attachment).

Oh man I sure hope to see some good dyno numbers... wish I had the headers and the cam done at the same time

I was just worred about the extra duration because I have to pass emmisions with this cam and was told 224/224 was the largest I could go with for passing emmisions

The TR224 cams spec out real close to 224. It is just production tolerances that allow them to check slightly larger or smaller than what the webpage advertises. They all check between approximately 223.5-225.5 degrees @ .050.

Yeah mine was a 223.7 0.563 113.5 After a few years machining parts on my lathe, being within + or - 0.0001 inch has a totally different meaning.

I would say 350 if u have open cutouts and if your a/f rate is not crazy rich ...
but then again every car is different. Could be higher or lower... I would think higher though since u have the 112 lsa.

Would I be able to run 12s with stock tires on 17" rims with just: TR224 114 lsa cam & tuning, lid, and a catback?

Car is an 02 6-spd.

You should be able to run 12's w/o the cam.

I went 11.84 with my TR224/114 cam and bolt-on's.....

I ran a 12.54 with just bolt-on's and a converter. You should be able to get into the 12's easily.

wouldn't it be wise to wait and tune after you put on the headers if you're going to do so this month? they usually make a difference in your a/f ratio...
