Cam suggestions Been saving up to get a new cam. Got a couple of questions, which have probably been asked numerous times before. What would be a good cam that has an excellent increase in HP/TQ, and still be able to pass emissions with proper tuning? This is for a 1998 Z28 A4. I've been researching some of the different cams that are out there, but haven't been able to decide which one yet. I don't want to get a cam with an increase that is barely noticeable. Would like to hear some of your opinions/advice.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Cam suggestions A 220/220 114 110 I/C will give a nice gain and be very emmissions friendly. Using a 112 LSA will give a little more torque down low, but if you add a high stall converter, the torque will go unused. You can probably go as large as a 224/224 114 110 and still pass emissions.
The cams I would suggest are high lift Comp XR-R cams or ThunderRacing's proprietary cam.

Re: Cam suggestions Cool, thanks for the info. I'll probably go with Comp. I think Comp would be a wise choice. Due to the fact, I can get Comp several places locally, and from what I can tell sounds like it would be a kickass cam. I'll know soon, when it gets installed.

Re: Cam suggestions TA, what are the specs on your cam? Did you get LS1 Edit or custom tuning done? I need to get something done quick. I don't even have a cam yet, and I failed inspection today. Gonna have to take the car to the shop soon.
