I've never seen over 380rwhp with a TR224 Cam with all the bolt-ons.The Cam is still good and we have a few 224's with heads and bolt-ons doing 430hp400tq.

 

I made 386/369 with a 224 cam with headers/bolt-ons and stock programming. Great cam.

 

I made 370 RWHP on my C5 with all the bolt ons.
I changed set ups and the cam is now for sale. Its a great cam.

 

well.... you guys convinced me! I bought it!!! i will update you with my new track time after headers/y pipe/cutout and this cam. (old best 12.49@107)

 

i have this cam sitting at home.. i have just been lagging on getting springs and pushrods so i can install it... from all i have heard its a great cam.. i would jump on it if i where u....

 

Only you can answer the question 'what is the best cam for YOU'.
We can all give our opinions and dyno numbers, but what is perfect for one driver isnt always the best for the other driver.

Take our opinons for what they are worth, and make a choice.

 

I think it's an awesome DD cam. Good power down low, nice lope but not ridiculous, and good power all the way to redline.

 

I have had great success with my TR224, Absolute Speed heads, and a strong tune. Numbers in sig.

 

What kind of power curve do you get with this cam, stock heads, ls6 intake, LT headers, lid, TB, MAF, tune. Do I need to upgrade injectors at this point or fuel pump. Would you lose any low end power over stock. My car is stock now but I'm trying to make a plan as I will be buying all parts next week if all goes as planed. My goal is to have streetable power down low and power up high of course. Car is 98 SS, m6, and I plan on keeping 3.42's for drivibility and some highway driving, thanks.

 

yeah Im wondering with what the guy above me said. Does it lose any power down low? nd if so.. how much?

 

Could someone post the specs for this cam?
TR224-112
.006 int/exh duration = ?
Intake Center Line = ?

 

Numbers in sig, IRS is eating up a few of my ponies but I'm still very happy with it. My curve is as flat as Kansas. I'll see if I can find the graph.


364 HP

I made 397 through a 9 inch with stock heads and intake with a steel driveshaft.

 

There is a very nice curve with this cam if you can tune it some. The tr224 cam is known for a tq dip in the middle rpm band, but with tuning, you can get a nice rainbow. I was able to get mine tuned to get a great tq curve. It really woke up with 30deg timing. (do suffer some in very hot weather though)

To answer your other ones, you will be safe with your stock injectors. I still have mine. Stock gears are fine, but I am going to drop in some 3.73's just to help the bottom end some more.

Here is my graph for your viewing.

 

will the 112 lsa be driveable in my A4 though? Its being installed about 4 hrs away from home, but once i get home, my buddy has HP tuners

 

well... im getting my baby back tomorrow

 

Get the 114lsa or 115lsa if you want your Caddy to run like a Caddy. If you do, it'll be great.

To the original poster. Yes. Those numbers look good. Check my sig for similar numbers.

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

This is what my old car ('98) put down with the TR224. It ran a 12.3 @ 115mph with a 1.9 60' @ 3600lbs.

 

well.. i got it back yesterday. It sounds mean. I was running open y pipe. Long tubes (no cats) then the y pipe and the exhuast wasnt connected. It sound mean. The car kept on dying on me though. It sucked! I was scared that i wasnt going to be able to drive the car back home from the shop, which was about 4 hrs away from my house! But finally, after driving the car around town for a lil bit i realized that i had to have the car above 1500rpm's or else the car would die. I was driving through LA when i hit down town around 6pm. I f*cking hate LA traffic. Stop and go. Good that i got my 3200 stall. Stop and by traffic for about an hour. The car pulls realy hard but i havent really stepped on it to where i pass 5500 rpm. Its waaaay to loud and annoying. Tomorrow im getting the car patched up at the exhaust shop. Hopefully the car wil be quieter, becuase its getting annoying. And im also getting it tuned, so hopefullly it wont die on my under 1500 rpm. Besides that... i have no complaints!
