Default Anyone using BTR stage 2 N/A cam?

I don't see too many people using this cam so I figured I'd ask If anyone is using it and how they like it. What kinda numbers did you get? What does your set up consist of? Stuff like that. Looks like its a good middle of the road cam. Not too big and not too small.

Your best bet would be to call Brian himself, discuss what you want and he will give you a recommendation. Everyone gets wrapped up in dyno numbers, no 2 people on here use the same brand dyno, at the same location, on the same day. It all fluctuates. I could daily drive my stage 4 BTR cam if I wanted to, but its all in the tune.

Yeah I know, I was just curious if anyone is using them but apparently the springs are way more popular than the cams. lol Looking at your sig it looks like you have a strong set up in yours. I have same rear with even the same gears but Im using 243 heads and LS6 intake.

Just search for a 226/234 or 227/234 or 227/235 cam on here. There are many variations of the same basic cam design and use pretty similar lobes. All perform well.

Tick, AI, BTR, and EPS all have shelf cams with those specs.

Since the EPS and AI cams have been around (worth the effort of searching):

Essentially yes. No real improvement over last cam. Previous was a comp 224/220 .581/.581 115. I didn't know what it had till I took it out.

Hey guys just ordered tf 220 and btr .660 spring kit and stage 2 cam. Wondering what kind of rwhp I'll be looking At? I have an ls6 intake and true duals. Also I have the supporting mods oil pump, bolts, injectors. Ps. My injectors are 48lbs , will they be to large for the setup? Thanks

Are long tube headers included in your supporting mods? Injectors are good, you might start looking into a fuel pump as well. You didnt specify if your car was m6 or a4, but I'm going to guess 434rwhp 402rwtq

Long tube headers and it's a m6. Thinking like a ractronix inline pump or in tank?

I would do a racetronix 255 with Hotwire kit. Pretty cheap and gives you room to grow
