Default Torquer camshaft and obligatory crap installed!

Well, thanks to Mark (slick98ta), we successfully installed prc dual springs, double timing chain, asp pulley, and the tsp camshaft. Texas Speed tuned the computer and did a fantastic job. The camshaft is 233/233 589/589 on a 112. I havnt really romped on it yet, but i can tell you it HAS to have 4:10's. the cam is going to be a MAJOR pain in the rear until i get gears. It bucks at 70 mph in 6th. Right around 1600-1700 you get pretty good surge and bucking in all of the gears. The cam does sound absolutely insane. The prc duals make absolutely NO noise. Im anxious to see what it dyno's. I'll get some sound clips (possibly video) some time this week.

Have you had it tuned yet? My F13 bucked a bit also, but messing around with the timing really helped. By the way, got anymore pics of your car? That thing is SEXY!

Congrats on the new cam. I bet it made a huge difference of the car. I know my FMS cam really woke my car up by. (50rwhp and 33rwtq)

I have the same cam. Mine bucked and surged too with the mail tune. All of my problems was fixed with a dyno tune. The mail in tune was not off by much though the guy said when he tuned it. My car put down 362.0 rwhp and 341.6 rwtq. It still has stock TB, intake, and pulley. Not bad for A4 I guess.

That's not bad at all considering its an A4 and you're missing a few bolt-ons.
