Nice times to the both of you.. Been looking around his site and seems like he is a very busy guy... Is it worth the wait and money or would a CC306 be plenty of cam to get me into the high 7's(1/8) n/a with supporting mods??

BTW car is a '94 Z A4..

Pacesetter LT's
TSP Rumbler TD dumped at axle
Undecided on Cam
Undecided on stall(waiting for cam choice)
slight port job on the heads
LT4KM


Thats all i can think of right now.. My goal is to hit high 7's NA and low 7's on a 100 or 150 shot on stock bottom end..

How much does your car weigh? And are you doing any weight reduction? What kind of suspension work and what gears will you be running? Some info on that and we can make more accurate recomendations..

Car will be full interior w/ only the spare tire and stuff removed.. maybe the backseats. Gears will be 3.42's, and i am open to suggestions on where to start for the suspension.
