well if u have and A4 you dont need a 112LSA, but other than that you should get a lot of power off of it. Get it ground up and post your dyno sheet <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Default New Cam Idea.

I don't know of anyone else who has tried this and Comp Cams thought it would be a combination for my setup. A 222/224 split pattern cam .548"/.553". Also they had thought about a 226/224 .553"/.550" as well. I have a hotcam now and stock valved ported heads milled .035" and I don't want to run into piston to valve clearance issues. I run 11.2's and best MPH is 120.9 so the heads are flowing well to match the hotcam, but I want something bigger and more aggressive now. What do you guys think? Any other ideas? Some people have suggest the TR 224 on a 112 with +2 advance ground in. Let the ideas flow on what you think about these cams.

I like those, but I'd go with more of a split. Like 224° intake and 220° exhaust. .568" on intake and .558" on the exhaust. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

A4's do quite well with a 112. the TR 224 112 has been used with good result in A4s and the C1 too.
