can someone explain what 112 +2 means. im thinking 112 degreea plus 2 more. but in my logic that would be 114 degreea, if thats true why not call it a 114 degree duration?

gas mileage goes way down, such attention the car attracts now, higher gears are needed to fully enjoy the cam, and there is a loss in low end torque, but people with 10bolts can say thats kind of a good thing.

Not sure what you mean by "I have the same cam as the F14". You either have an f-14 or you dont. A cam that shares the same specs in duration, and lift at .050 can still have a vastly different lobe profile and be either far more agressive or far more docile. If it cam doctored to be almost identical, then maybe youre close.
Edit: Sorry if that sounded dick-ish. Just trying to pass the info along.

No problem. I have the same specs as the F14 with a 114 lobe. It`s not as radical as the Y1 I had from MTI. But it`s really easy to drive now. I had to give alittle power for drivability issues with a A4. But thats life!!!

I have the 4.10's in the car so.. I dont know what to expect for gas milage. But I do have the m6 and I was used to a stalled 3600 a4 so maybe it will be close?
The stall sucked for gas since I had to hit the gas harder than a normal gas pedal to go anywhere
