Is anybody running the Thunder 224/224 561/561 114 in an A4? How do you like the performance? How is the idle and at what RPM does your car idle?

It will work fine and provide an excellent gain. I have that on the XE-R ramps and had a TR 224 112 as well. Idle of 850 - 900 rpm will be very streetable. 750 - 800 rpm if you want to advertise that you have a cam.

I'll post just to give you a little insight. I know of a few A4's running the TR224 on a 112 LSA with no problems. They all had their idle set at 900 RPM. I'm running the Comp XE-R 224 on a 112 LSA, and I have my idle right at 825. It's just fine and doesn't give me any problems with surging, etc. (so long as the a/c is off). A 900 idle works great if I'm going to run the a/c. The 114 LSA won't have quite as much mid-range power compared to the 112 LSA, but it will have a slightly better idle. A 900 idle would definitely be safe, but I like to hear as much of the cam as I can. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> A solid gain of 30-35 RWHP could be achieved with all of the bolt-ons.

I have the TR-224 cam. love the cam. with stock idle (stock tuning) like i have right now, its tuff to get the cam to idle at 650 rpms <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> You wanna talk about how nice my lope is right now <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Get your idle between 800-900 for this cam. The sucker pulls like a ***** all the way up to 6600 rpms!

It gives nice E.T's too. Check the sig, not bad for stock heads/stock gears too.
