Default MTI T1 or TR 224

Which cam is better: fuel mileage, performance, emissions. Personal experiences?

Thanks

I'd personally go w/ the TR 224. More duration w/ quicker ramp rates will give near identical idles between the two w/ some more power.

I just got mine installed and am extremely happy with the performance of the TR224. It loves to come alive where you need the HP..from 5000 to 6700 it feels like you have a rocket tied to your butt. Extremely smooth thru all gears and, what I think is a perfect streetable lope. It is more aggressive than you would think. Good Luck and I am sure both are good cams. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
