Default Upgrading from MTI TI CAM

I have had the MTI T1 Cam for a long time, and been out of modding for a while. I come back and Bam! 425 RWHP cars just on Cam changes! It seems the T1 has been out grown by a lot of more other Cams out there. Have any other T1 Users dumped their Cam and went with something else? I am sitting at about 380RWHP with Sig mods, and I have the mods coming below. I am thinking maybe I while I am tearing everything else apart I might just replace my T-1 with someing that will give me even more power. I have heard some Cam from Thunder Racing is the bomb. Chime in with any thought, and any Cam suggestions

Try XE-R 228/228 .588 .588 112+4. or TR can grind you something similar. MyLS1Hauls runs this cam. He upgraded from a TR220 and says it idles good with no tunning on his M6, good lobe, powerwise it pulls harder than the previous.

I switched from MTI's T1 to their X1 - 30 rwhp again with just the cam swap! Would highly recommend taking a lot at that camshaft.

Good luck with your project!
