daily driver but i want to get in the mid 11's after the heads and cam as far as the heads go this is what im doing i was just gonna get my stock ones cnc with 202 intake and 160 exh valves and have them milled down a lil for better compression

If it was me I would torquer v2. there are several guys on here that have the torquer and they love them. If it will be a daily driver the MS3 may be a bit too big. I see that you want to mill the heads for better compression I am no expert or certain but you may run into PTV clearance with either cam but much more likely with the MS3. I hope more experienced people chime in to help but you could always call TSP and tell them your goals and they can certainly advise you on which direction to go.

o dam i didn't even think of the clearance issue i guess i can just go with some 5.3 heads to get that clearance and better compression a guy on here the 228r might actually be a better choice what do u think

I would go with the Torquer V.2 for a DD,should get you in the 11's with the supporting mod's you already have.

Launching!
If it is truely a daily driver, go with the Torquer V.2. Yes you can DD an MS3 but the Torquer V.2 would be much better, but then again you may also look into the 228r. If you pick a cam for the real use of the car and not just numbers you will be much happier. Since you are going with TSP, give them a call and talk to them.

If it's a DD i would look at the 228. That cam with supporting mods and good driver should put you in the low 11 second range if the car isn't low on power to start. I have two V2 cars one A4 and one M6 and I would go with a 228 for just as much power but better drive ability and under the curve power.

I had similar mods and a ms3 in a car one time and wasnt all that impressed when I got it together and drove it. Between the 2 cams you are picking from Id do the torquer in a heartbeat.

Daily driveablility is not comprimised in my opnion at all with the Ms3, and i have 4.10's. I found a good tuner and have zero issues with drivablilty and 410rwhp. With stock 243 heads
For what its worth... Slap a ms3 in there with your stock heads, and run all over a Torq V2. with heads. Then wait to get a set of ported AFR 205's, least thats my plan
