MS3 guys a few?'s
MS3 guys a few?'s I am going with a bigger cam this spring/summer and the MS3 is what I am going with unless something else catches my eye. Here's the questions. What are your shifting at (A4 trans) what is your rev limit set at, and what rpm are you making peak hp? I searched but the dynochart posted by TSP had the rpms skeewed. Haven't heard any details since. The reason I ask is so I'll know whether or not I'll need to get the ARP rodbolts. It all depends on how high I'll have to spin this puppy. Also it will be on stock heads. I'm currently shifting the TSP 225 at 6500 with the limiter set at 6800, of course I never tap it. Thanks guys.
The Cam make it's peak power at like 6500 so you'll need to shift at 6800 or 6900 rpm...
No need for rob bolts my buddy with a g5x3 spins his to 7+ daily for a few months now and he still hasn't thrown a rod.

Id be more concerned with spinning a rod bearing. If you plan on spinning it to 7000rpm on a regular basis, plan to break things. Just my opinion, from experience of course
