Re: Cam is in!!!
Thanks.... for the congrats ... yeah the 112lsa sounds mean with full exhaust!!!
I love it!!!!! I am having it tuned to where it idles around 700rpms
Well I would say that it pulls pretty hard all the way from around 3k to 6.5k

Re: Cam is in!!!
Good luck with your new cam! I'm also considering the TR224 for my conversion.
I noticed that you have a ported MAF and A4, and was wondering if you've noticed any (A4) shifting irregularities? I've read several threads on this site that cautioned against porting the MAF if you own an A4. Apparently, porting is related to low fluid pressures and can lead to transmission failure. Thanks, Glenn

Re: Cam is in!!!
Nice choice. As for the PMAF, there is some people thathave experienced problems having the Ported MAF and the flow signal it sends ot the computer, ultimately leading to problematic shifting and trans failure. Something about it, do a search, maybe go back 6mo or a year and you can read on it. I descreened mine....no problems. My friends are Ported and no problems either. who knows.
Again, enjoy and post up some times with it.

I will also have the A4 and ported maf. So far, I haven't heard of any negative experiences with this setup. That was the nature of my question. Glenn

Re: Cam is in!!!
I have the same cam in my M6, going through Hooker Long Tubes and a flowmaster full exhaust. The lope when idling, even with my misfiring...LOL, makes you want to druel(sp). From about 2600 RPMs on, it pulls like crazy. I have no tuning and no LS6 intake either. Surprised with the awesome gas mileage too...on a full tank on the highway between 80 and 90 mph, I got 24.6 miles to the gallon!!

Re: Cam is in!!!
about the whole ported MAF ends and tranny failure, it killed mine. tranny guy scanned the comp i guess but he found a drop in line pressure and the only thing i had swapped was the ported MAF ends. i guess i was one of the unlucky ones. so back to stock i went and no problems in 4k miles.
