Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? Don't see a whole lot about it but it looks like a good cam.
Just have a couple questions:
hows the idle?
What kind of HP does it get with stock heads?
What do you shift at? M6
What kind of 1/4 mile times?
Thanks,
Collin

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? The idle is smooth. If you dont have headers and idle at 900rpms, it sounds like this:

If you do have headers and idle at 750 it sounds a bit meaner, but nothing too crazy. Thats part of the reason I like it.
Power on stock heads? Dunno. I'd guess it could vary anywhere from 375-390 depending on the car (with headers and offroad pipes).
I shift at 6600rpms.
My dyno is here:

But I dont have headers or a catback or anything so your results may vary. Obviously I could make a lot more power with headers. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? doesn't sound like it lopes a lot. I kinda want a 113 or 112 LSA to get a nice lopy idle and to get some power down lower to help get off the line quicker with the M6.

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? Well, thats all fine and dandy, but I dont have headers, i dont have offroad pipes, and i dont have aftermarket mufflers so of course it wont sound like it lopes much.
If you want a cam that lopes a lot, try the 230/224 111, if you want a cam that lopes a little, get the 227/224 114.
I personally don't want lope, I want the car to perform, not SOUND like its performing. Closer it sounds to stock the better IMO.

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? Hey jmX,
How does the 227/224 114 compare to the 224/224 114? Is there much of a difference, or nothing really noticeble? I like the idea of a 114 for idle quality, but I'm not sure how the intake duration would play on power and driveability.

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? According to thunderracing's dyno, the 227/224 made 4-5rwhp more than the 224/224.
I've had both cams in my car and the 227/224 seems to idle and drive just as good as the 224, the 3 degrees extra intake duration dont seem to affect drivability at all. Most people could drive this car and never even know it had a cam, it drives that well.

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? Jmx that dosent even sound like you have anything on that car. Sounds like you just bought the car, only ting though is a want headers <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> and I doubt it covers up the lope even with the stock cat back. Do you have any sound clips of the engine revving

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? I have 227/224 114 and it lobes pretty damn hard. I also have mac headers with a orp and ported heads which probabaly plays a big part in that. Everyone notices it and the cops sure did when I had a straight pipe on it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> It still sounds mean with my SLP dual duals but no were near as loud. As far as power goes it pulls hard above four grand and doesn't seem to stop till about 6500 r's.

Re: Anyone have the TR 227/224 Reverse Split??????? I've got mac headers custom Y and cats, with B&B tri flow and a cutout.
I want something that I can hear lope with the cutout closed.
I'm thinking maybe a 227/227 112 LSA custom grind
