Default Any one running this cam?

228/228 114 LSA. .588 lift on both the intake and exhaust. I'm looking at purchasing this cam package. The purpose for this cam is I'm planning on turboing the car, but until then I wanted a cam I can use N/A and on a boosted application.

I am. Great mild cam, although at times I wish I had gone bigger.

If I was building a N/A, I would definately go bigger. But I'm glad to hear your happy with it. Any big issues with your states emission laws? Does your pass pretty good?

Thanks for replying.

No problems with passing emissions. That is one of the reasons why you need to get it tuned after the install. Just have them tune out the code.

Its a very popular cam. I, as well as many others have this cam & it makes very good power with a fairly wide powerband. You should pick up 40 whp with this cam.

I am using that cam with a 112 LSA. It's an M6 CTS-V, with the exception of some increased lope it just like stock for the most part.

I am happy with my choice.
