Does anyone have a 224/224?

Ok, now that we've got that cleared up. Does anyone have a TR224 FOR SALE?? I have been lookin for a few months now for a good deal. The last one got taken from under me so I'm still lookin.

Yeah, unfortunately I haven't been able to catch one there either. That's why I decided to post in on the interal section, for the guys who swap them out. I was hoping to catch them before they got to the for sale section.

Keep me in mind if you can't find one. I'll most likely be selling mine in a month or so when I figure out what cam I want to replace it with.

Not much. They go for $50. PM me when you're ready to sell and I'll even pay you for shipping.

I have a 224/228 coming in Friday. I already have one cam for my car that's not installed, and I sure don't need two.

I'll check the cam card for it and get exact lift & the LSA. PM me if interested.

It has 500 miles on it. I need $250 for it.

Ha Ha... certainly not $50. Someone would be a fool to give away a TR224 for $50 (unless it's trash).

$250 sounds like a decent price.

So Comps will make more power than TR's 224/224? and how about a 224/228?

Power will be the same. Four degrees on the exhaust side is negligible to power production. Exhaust duration has one of the slightest affects on total power production.

The 224/224 works best with a great flowing exhaust system. If you're comparing the 224/228 vs. a 224/224 on a chassis dyno there's a chance it [224/228] could make slightly more power if all factors are the same excluding exhaust- if this comparison is done through a catback the 224/228 may make slightly more power.

All-in-all, they're virtually identical. Do a search for the 221/221 vs 224/224. These two cams make nearly identical power.

Probably, but not much at all. I'd guess 2 hp? Anyone know exactly?

Through a 9inch on an 01 ws6 m6 i made 397hp with the tr224. I love the cam i gained about 60 rear wheel horse!!! it still drives starts the same as stock with the same gas mileage. Buying one new wont kill you either, i bought mine for like 390..
Good luck!
