Default Cam opinions on Thunder Racing Raptr Cam

Ok guys my build is coming up soon and making my final decisions. The car is not a DD so I am not worried about driveability. All I am looking for is some info if any on this Thunder Racing Raptr Cam. I have an A4 and will be going with a SS3600 and 4.10 gears. Any info and or suggestions are much appreciated.

I know its not your DD, but are you going to drive the car on the street a lot? Just wonder cause you have a A4 and wanna go with 4.10s. My buddy has that combo and hates it on the street. Highway is horrible. I think he is close to 3k at 70 mph lol

Just an FYI for ya

Yes I will be driving the car on the street, to the track and occasionally to work. But I have only driven the car about 150 miles in the past 8 months. My DD is a 2011 BMW 328 so I wont be driving the TA much.

Thunder makes good cams... If you understand how its gonna run with a cam that size and your ok with it don't second guess yourself. How valuable is the opinion of 25-40 strangers?...

i love my t-rex..... but... it doesnt make any power until like 3600rpms.... no power until then.... the raptor is a little smaller and a wider power band.... but if ur gonna run that much gear in the rear then go ahead and get a t-rex....
