How High To Rev Hammer Cam?
What do you all think? The car revs now to 6300, and I am wondering what you all thought about changing it during my next dyno tune? Thanks!

My C1 on stock heads used to peak hp @ 6000 and tq @ 5000.
6300 would have been a good shift point, but if the peak takes a while to taper off, I'd shift even higher.
Also, you have a 114 lsa setup, so it may peak a bit higher than the C1 which comes on 112 usually.

^ was your setup still on stock heads? or were they ported?
On the 231/237 setup I have now, peak power moved up in the rev range after I swapped from stock heads to the 1.5's.

Well he has a A4 with a VIG 2800. So I would say shift at a point that will keep you in the highest HP margin between shifts, while still falling within your stall shift extensions.

I agree! You might think about going with a higher stall converter also!

The vig actually stalls at 3200, so it isn't as much as it lists, but it still isn't a big stall that most guys run. I have the dyno/tuning setup for Friday, so I will report back how it goes...

there are shift point calculators out there fwiw...all you need is an accurate dyno sheet and map your rpms vs. hp or tq...if your cam peaks at say 5800rpms i would shift it between 6300-6500...you have a smaller tc so your shift extensions are probably pretty low so i would definitly shift close to 6500 as to not kill the car on the shifts and with a good set of springs you shouldnt have too many issues with your internals.
