To be short, its a great cam. Just search for it, or my username, and you'll find plenty of comments.

Welcome aboard by the way!

What other mods do you have? Are you an A4 or M6? I ran the T3 for 2 years. Its a nice cam...and yes you will get the choppy sound you are looking for.

Do a search for my User Name in the Dyno section and youi can see my graph. It was posted around November '06.

Welcome to the Board.

Well sounds like you're on your way lol. Yeah there is a sound clip at idle and a little driving. I think there's even a race I had in the multimedia section or something. Sorry if I get some time tomorrow I'll post some of it here if you cant find it. Frat has some good comments about it also, try Phenomic too he has it. There's plenty of us out there!

Whats up Frat?! I'll be PMing you soon.

Dude,

Your there... your mods will compliment that cam nicely. You'll have to take it back for a retune....maybe some tweaking to the VE table, idle, rescale the MAF...ect...

Its a nice cam, it felt like too much cam for me for a DD, but you sound like it wont bother you. It has a nice rough lopy idle, its stilll a mild cam and will make great power.. I had experience with it for only one day, so I cant say too much about it.. But all I heard was excellent things from it...

I would love to see some actual info on how this cam performs. How is the torque? Horsepower? Where does it begin to pull? I would also love to see some of you that actually have the cam, go out and gets some video of the tach/speedometer on a WOT run. Best way to judge how they perform.

TV3 is a nice performing cam but for DD I am not fond of that .643 intake lift.

I am a newbie to this but what reasons would you not be fond of a .643 intake lift? Is it hard on valvetrain? Does it efect drivability? Etc.........
