Can't decide which cam to get...i was dead set on the 228R cam by tsp since my car is a DD but i got thinkin "what if i go a lil bigger" since both cams have the XER lobes. How would this cam be in my Auto Daily driver? ....mods in sig and future supporting mods in sig....lemme know whatca guys think cause it still needs to a friendly dd....thanx guys

if the mail order tune is on both should be very streetable,but alot of times you'll have surge, stalling,and afr is not always right either.i'd save for a dyno tune and some drivability tuning as well,or splurge and get hp tuners of efi live,downside of self tuning is well over 1000.00 after wideband,pillar pod,etc.

TSP 228R would make a little more trq under the curve.

it's also a general rule if they are ground on different lobes as well

i got a 228r with a 114lsa. its a really good cam man.i was at the track trying to get into the 11's but broke my axle after my 12.3 sec pass. this is in my daily driver m6. with my set-up it has a very good hotrod sound to it.i love it, it screams on the freeway and has good street manners. people get scared too when they walk by as i start it up. Im very satisfied with this cam and have not a bad thing to say about it.

I am have no problems with driving my car on the street. I have the comp xer lobes on mine. just a little different than the torqer 2. It is all in the tune for streetability.
