what are you lookin for? 112 will have a little bit of a lope but will show more power, 114 will have very little lope and show extra gains over stock, both should be fine with that stall, if i were you i'd just go 224 but thats me.

I would guess a cam only tr220 A4 would do around 330-350rwhp or so, although some of the M6 guys with this cam only have done 380rwhp. 112 and 114 will give the same power, just at different rpms. The 114 is supposed to idle better for automatics, but with this small of a cam, if you have a good tuner, he will be able to get it to idle well with either lsa you choose.

I compared many TR 224 dynos vs the 220, and the 220 has a higher torque curve below 3500 or so. At the 224 has more peak HP.

I am an M6 owner, and I make well over 400 and 400 at the tire [with an LS1 with bolt ons]. The TR 220/114 works for me.

400/400 with a bolt on LS1?



Unless you're saying you have a TR220, in which case you don't have a bolt on LS1.

Did you mean you have a TR220 and bolt ons?

I think that's what you're saying.

This is a great cam, they come up on the for sale forum in the $200 range. This or a B1 cam would make a great daily driver cam with a nice boost over stock.

Most guys will tell you to stick with the higher lobe seperation on an automatic car. I did a million man hours of research on mine, and ended up w/ a 115 lsa cam actually. **cheap plug alert** Actually, I'm selling a brand new 215/220 115 cam now. Guys at TR say it doesn't require a tune in an A4 car. It's what sold me. The converter you're choosing would be what I'd go with also. It's a good choice for a daily driver. You're still going to need traction though!!!

Good luck on your ride.

you should make well over 340 horse with a good tune. there is a guy in the truck section with headers, underdrive pulleys, cold air intake, and the tr220 cam and he made 340 rwhp in a 5.3. thunder tuned it for him and they said it still had about ten horse they could pull out of it. if you get a quality tune, i yhink you will be very pleased with that cam.
