First Impressions of TR224/224 112lsa

Very cool!

I just installed my TR224/224 112lsa cam over the weekend. All I have to say is wow, My tires hate me. The mid-range torque is phenominal! Combined with my Super Thruster 3800 torque converter the torque multiplication is fantastic. I can't wait to get to the track next weekend.

any way, I'll try to get the car strapped down to the Dyno to get a good before/after from my previous combination.

Well as far as the idle, its great! But on that note I have full control of my PCM via LS1 Edit. So, I lowwered my idle down to 850 (from the 950 the last cam liked) and raised the base timing to around 25 degrees. Its still choppy but very liveable.

I agree that the 224 w/ a 112 LSA rocks in an A4! I have Comp's XE-R 224 cam on a 112 LSA, and I LOVE it! I have my idle sitting at 800 RPM in gear, and the car is really happy. It thumps nicely at that idle and doesn't give me any drivability problems. I know that my Nittos HATE me with the Yank PT4400! <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
Let us know how it performs at the track. I'm going to make another attempt to run this Saturday if Mother Nature will ever cooperate. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
