i have a 228r 112lsa and i shift mine between 6200 and 6300. That's also about where the dyno peaks off.


i've got a few videos of some pulls (first one, my reaction is funny) and an idle if you'd like to try and get a better feel for it. even tho i'm a six speed.

I hope to get my TSP 228R @ 112 installed this weekend in my Z06. I have all of the parts ready, but I'm an old guy. Hope I can do it one weekend. I can't wait to hear it and drive it.

The power on the 112 will come a bit sooner in the rpms. The 112 will have a bit more lope to it.

I am running stock 853 heads with stock ls1 intake. From what I have seen the 228r seems to be a good cam. I am considering ordering this cam package but not sure how it will do with my stock components.

I put in the 228R on a 110 LSA last month, I love it!!! I have a huge flat TQ curve and peak HP at only 6200 RPM.

Here is the video of the dyno, watch the three guys in the background its hilarious! One guy plugs his ears, the guy next to him pulls the first guys fingers out of his ears. About 2 seconds later all three guys are plugging their ears!!
