Default Torquer v2 112lsa to big for an unstalled A4?

would the car be streetable without a tune? I do have a Diablosport predator, could I work out all the major kinks until I'm able to get her to a dyno?

I'm sure you already know the answer most people will tell you. You'll get more of a gain my getting a stall first.

Do the stall first. Mine went in last week and it's so much fun to drive. Roll into the throttle and stab it and the 275's break loose I can only imagine when the stuff in sig gets on

It wont even be streetable with a tune and would be border line dangerous.
Idle will be too high and it will pull hard against your brakes. That is a 9 degree overlap cam and requires an idle of around 950 or so

I tried it myself for about two weeks. Same exact cam and LSA

Listen to Predator-Z. It was nearly impossible to keep the car from rolling forward at red lights. I had to literally stand on the brake.

What about the TSP 228R 112lsa? I really want to go as big as I can get away with and have the car be streetable. Not really a DD, more of a weekend warrior - I wand some nice lope with a good low end.

Not going to stay with the stock stall for too long, I'd just like to do the cam first. You know, now that I think about it maybe I should stall it first, seems to be the general consensus. I don't know much about tyranny's though - and don't want my poor little 460le to melt.

you'll never get in the power band anyway without the stall, meaning you will lose to a car with a stock cam!

Do the stall first. I did a cam years ago with a stock stall and if I had to do it over again I would do the stall first.
