Default TR 220/114 or 224/114??????

I was going to go with the TR 220/114 but now have the chance to buy a new unused TR 224/114 from someone that won't be using it.
1) Will this cam work without programming?
2)Will I get a decent idle?
I am not keen on spinning the motor up to 6700.
3)Will this cam make the same kind of power as the 220/114 if I only rev to say 6400 rpm?
My car is a M6.

I have a M6 w/the 224 installed set with a 6700 limiter and shift light at 6400....I am extremely happy with this setup. Pulls hard through the shift and I believe I could bump up 200 rpm, but am getting used to the new setup (it ramps fast from 5000 up). BTW, get a shift light if you don't have one. I installed Harlan's in the defroster vent located in the driver's pod....pretty cool. I run the MAFT for tuning and only have it set at 4% lean WOT and 0% base...I was 2% lean adjustment before install. I believe most of my rich condition is caused by the hi-flow exhaust I have (ie Macs,RT cats,LM) and not the added cam setup.
The 224/114 is a proven performer w/out "tuning" on a M6 with stock idle.
Good Luck and good hunting with the new cam....you will love it!
BTW, do get the titanium retainers....TR's price for them with the package is worth the piece of mind....
If you don't have a clutch upgrade and DR's ....you will soon <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
