Finally Dyno'd my 10 second cam only setup I finally got to dyno my car 
This is the same setup I've had since april of 2002 and went a 10.98 with, except I sold the carbon fibre drive shaft and reinstalled the factory aluminum piece. I also am on factory 16 inch wheels now.
My setup includes a Futral FM4 226/226 575/575 114 cam, Yank tp4400, 4.10's, ls6 intake, etc, etc. I am still using my 1st set of comp 26918's from april 2002.
We dyno'd both locked and unlocked. Needless to say I am very happy

Bout damn time 
Ive been waiting for someone to get some dyno time for this cam by itself in an A4. Those are great numbers. Congrats. How would the cam be for a daily driver? Ive got a VIG 2800 now, do you think I would need a larger stall with the 226?
Thanks and Congrats Again

Very nice power across the curve and lots of horsepower. Your car was one of the first to be the fastest and you did an outstanding job to set the example for others. Keep up the good work. Thanks for the sharing the information and cam was definitely a good one. Cheers...............

This cam is an excellent daily driver cam. That's why I have it, and not some 230+ cam. The idle is fairly mild through a closed exhaust system, but with an open system you can hear the cam hit. Surging and stalling are not a problem with the fms tuning.
The cam will work fine with any stall. But it will produce better times with the tp4400 because of the shift extension as well as the better ET producing torque converter. The same could be said for any cam out there from stock to 230+.
Mike,looking at your dyno curve it looks like the 918s are doing very good with that cam.
Do you have any plans for the car or are you going to set back and wait for me to catch up to you
On your 11.0s-10.98 run was you on the rev limiter at the 1/4 with the 4.10s? Last time i went if i held the gas say 20-30 feet past the 1/4 i would tap the rev limiter and i was curious if the 4.10s maxed out around 121 on the 26x10 ET Drags. If i have problems next time with this then im going to have to switch back to 3.73s.
