Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? Had the T1 ordered, but seems the kit wasn't as "complete" as I needed it to be, or available in the time frame I had in mind. So I ended up getting the TR 224 on 112.
Is there anyone here running this with the A4 and stock heads? I assume that I'll gain the ususal 25-30 hp. If you are running this, give me some idea of what I have to look forward to once this is installed. Thanks Geoff for taking the time to talk to me & answer all my questions. Thunder rocks!!

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? I can't wait to see your results with this cam! I've looked at it for quite a while now. Peak torque is right at 4k, and that's PERFECT for the Vig 3200. After jotting down a few different ideas for what I want to do, I've decided that I want a cam to work with my Vig 3200 instead of just getting a cam and buying a different converter to work with it. I like the streetability of the Vig 3200. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
Good luck with the new cam. When do you expect to install it?

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? I've got every bolt on there is, except for the EWP, with dual exhaust, 3:73 on the factory 10 bolt. I'd be very happy with close to 370 after tuning, stoch heads. It should work out good. Patrick should have his on before I can get mine. I most likely only be able to show track improvement, not dyno. Thr track doesn't open up until the first of April up here.

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? Hopefully the rest of the drivetrain will hold up, esp since I also have the Compucar 150-200 shot on there also. I should be able to at least carry the fronts a little further for the boys at Stanton... <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
Bob, let us know how that works out.. I should have the cam broken in & the computer tweeked by opening day, the beginning of April.. Looking for low 11's with full interior & mid-low 10's on spray. <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? The cam is great in an A4. Driveability is excellent. It idles well at 950. It wasn't necessary to do any computer reprograming except for using a HPP3 to reset the rev limiter and up the shift points. The cam loves a large shot of nitrous. Your expectations seem to be within reason. I think you will be very happy with your choice.

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? What about emissions? Anyone pass emissions with that cam at 114lsa? Also Gold Z how did you raise the idle to 950rpms without programing?

Awesome Patrick! I know you are going to love the cam.
Black Sunshine: We installed the 224 112 in a local A4 car with CNC heads. Intially, he had the 220 112 cam, but wanted a little more lope at idle and power. He said he lost no driveability going to the larger 224 cam compared to the 220. The car has 3:73 gears and a Vig 3200. It pulled upper 390rwhp w/o tuning, an ASP pulley, or a ported TB. Good luck!

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? I have the Thunder 224 on a 114 sep. It put down 363hp with my other mods at Norris Motorsport in Orlando.

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? Josh - You can raise your idle by drilling a larger hole in the blade of the throttle body or by opening the TB blade more via the set screw on the pass.-side of the TB. The head of the screw is facing down, so you'll have to unbolt the TB to get at it (at least I did).

Re: Anyone running the TR 224-112 with an A4? you can also take out that screw trevor and install it from the top so you can adjust it in the future with out taking the TB off or using a 90 degree Torx wrench
