Which cam to use for street performance What cam would be the best to use on a daily driver? Not too many mods right now, but I will most likely be using nitrous next year. Is Lunati a good choice, and if so, which one of the 3 street cams would be best?
thx

Re: Which cam to use for street performance Bass98WS6, you gosta give info on your engine setup. If it is mostly stock, then it makes a difference. If you have full boltons and maybe a little headwork, your cam choice will change drastically. Let these guys know what you have, what your looking for (performance wise) and what you are willing to sacrafice to get it (surging, strong exhaust). Include these tidbits and people will probably be more willing to share their knowledge. If all else fails, call some of the vendors, they are trying to sell you their cam but they do take into account what your needs are. Best of luck

It is an M6, I have 3:73's, no cats, and it has a Flowmaster muffler. I got the car about 3 weeks ago, and the only thing that I myself have done is the gears.
I am trying to sort out my options, and I have several in mind. Fully N/A, N/A + nitrous, or forced induction. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
I am thinking of going the N/A route, and most likely add nitrous next year. I will be doing long-tubes, y-pipe, new cat-back, heads, cam, intake, TB, mass-air, whisper lid, clutch, 12-bolt, and then I will probably add the nitrous. If anyone has any recommendations as to what to do first, I would appreciate it.

Re: Which cam to use for street performance TR 224 with 114 LSA. That would work well with your combo. You'll need tuning too. Fellow Orlandoan here. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
