Default TR 230/224 Cam.....

Who is running this cam with stock heads? What RPM are you shifting at? (M6) What is the idle like? How is the driveability? Will 918's hold this cam?

Sorry for all the questions.

See sig for track times,etc. I am shifting the car at 6700 rpms.

The idle and driveability is not bad at all once you get the TB hold drilled out some. After you do this, you should be fine.

I used 918s w/ this cam and had zero issues.

Thanks for the Reply Jason.

I am somewhat worried about spinning my motor to 67-6800 all the time. I was hoping I could shift at 65-66. my limiter is set to 6800 and I am also running a stock bottom end. I just don't have the back up cash to snap a rod bolt or two.

The dyno sheet that TR posted shows that the cam hits peak right about 5900-6000. That should be fine for me to shift at 6500. At least I hope so.
