I am thinking about a cam.Most likely its going to be the TR224 114 LSA.I am wondering what rpms I will go through the traps in 4th gear. Right now I trap around 115 with the cam I should pick up a mph or so.What do you guys hit the traps at.Will 6600 be enough or should I get custom tuning from Ed Wright and raise the limiter to 6800...Any help would be appreciated!

 

I was running the same cam you are planning to use. It pulls hard all the way until my 6800 revlimiter. I shifted the car at 6600. This cam loves to rev, so I would send the PCM off to a tuner and get it bumped to 6800.

Will I hit 6600 in 4th gear?

 

What tires do you plan on running?

We wanted to see if the extra 3 degrees on the intake would help any. I picked up 4-5rwhp from 4500-6800 with the new cam. The new cam drives just as good, but with a little more lope at idle.

i am putting a cam in my M6. I plan on headers, a cartek clutch, and an asp pulley. What is the best all around for a daily driver but good power? I installed a hotcam for a guy, that came out real good. If I go with the mods Im talking about, (maybe a dry shot for the hell of it) what cam is the best? I'm just starting my research. Thanks, Jason
