The power comes on a little earlier ( couple hundred RPMs ) and has a little nicer lobe. I think my power dropped off at 5800 RPMS with cam only

Real nice cam that you dont have to rev the crap out of to make power

Not that it really matters, lol, but how bad did the gas mileage suffer with the 112 lsa TR224?

Here is my old dyno sheet, should be updated by this Friday since I am getting my car re-tuned by Mike Norris who will be at Aftermath Performance in Fort Myers on Friday.



This was with what I believe to be a pretty shitty tune. Before I put the 4.10s in, the car was pretty "bucky" to drive at low RPM's...I had to keep it in 3rd when going 30 - 35 mph so it wouldn't be constantly at the virge of bucking. You can smell the gas when it just sits there ideling, and when I get on it, people behind me say they can smell gas big time.

I have the 112 version, I am hoping to see some better numbers come Friday.

As far as gas mileage goes, believe it or not, but all the mods I did to it improved it, the big mods being LT headers, LS6 intake, and the cam. The primary reason for that probably is that I don't drive like a mad man. It just takes less throttle to get the same effect as stock, so really, if you keep your foot out of it, your mileage just might improve, like mine did

I drive my car about and hour and a half down the NJ turnpike to have the cam installed. With all the bolt on, I was getting 28.3 MPG highway. I drove hom after the cam only and tune, and was getting 32 MPG highway. The tune helps ALOT. Cruising with the TR224 on a 114 saw no differance feeling than the stock.

Playing with it around town, and the milage was lower.
