i have that cam just .563 lift and it sounds just like a 112 cam. Just depends where you set your idle. Mines at 975 and still has a deep lope!

you will be very happy. Its just gonna take some tuning, TB hole drilling, and some other things to get her to idle good

hey now, NOS is ok but its just not one word NAWSSSS is different

114 is better for spray so I hear... you will be fine with that cam but its gonna be a better NA cam. They make split duration cams more N20 friendly but this one will suit you fine

I have done some research on different cams on my Engine Analyzer Pro and the cam you are looking at (as well as I am) is good for naturally aspirated or turbo, but needs more exhaust duration and lift for nitrous or supercharger. I would recommend one of MMS Racing's blower cams. Thet have a larger split duration and lift as well as a 115 LDA for better idle. Are you going to stick with stock, unported heads?

i have it on a 112 LSA. idles little rough with idle at about 950 (little compared to some of my friends cars). pulls good and should work well with NOS as i will find out soon

I have also read the a split duration is better for nitrous but since you are not going to be spraying all that much this cam should suit you fine.
