Trying to figure out what cam I have Bought the car used from a dealer here, who drove it from a wholesaler in Virginia.
It has the "yellow" LS6 springs.
The car lopes pretty noticabley when your sitting in it, you can feel the car rocking around. It idles at about 750rpm, and doesn't really have any surging issues.
I don't have hptuners yet, to see if tuning has been done with the cam.
I thought it might be a hotcam, which is what I had in my A4 TA, but that was over 3 years ago, so its hard to compare. That and this is an M6 car.
I would think that an LS6 cam wouldn't be noticable because of the high LSA, but haven't been in a car with it.
I guess it could also be a comp 220 or something else under .570 lift(LS6 spring limitations)
Any ideas or experience is appreciated.
Thanks, James.
