I'm considering the TSP MS3 Magic Stick. Still doing a bunch of research though. Just use the search and find a bunch of info. Start with JRP's sticky here:http://www.ls2.com/forums/showthread...threadid=19550
What are all your mods? Are you an M6 or A4?

M6 or A4 is important also what kind of power you wnat to make vs. driveablity is another key factor to consider as well
I'm running the TR 224 cam and is perfect for daily driving and makes good power in the mid range and top end

Man you need to give more information on what you want there are a lot of cams out there right now and so we need to know what you are wanting. Good drivablity, max power or what. And drivability is all in the opinion of the driver some think if it runs it's a dailly driver and other expect more etc. I herd the "S" cam on Saturday and it sound real good, but I can not attest to its drivability etc. and the guy was going pretty much for a race car IMO. So give us some imput on what you want and we could make a few recomedations I still like you guys to decide for yourself witch cam you want as then it is your decision I just try to give a little help from what I have installed or driven etc.
