Advice on Go Fast Goodies

**98formy** · 01-29-2008, 06:21 AM

I have currently a tr224 .563 114 lsa cam now with ls6 intake, full exhaust, 3400 stall, and some others. I bought a set of used ported heads that have 225cc intake and 82cc exhaust that flow at 290cfm @.600 intake and cant remember the exhaust side. I am also getting a fast 90/90 combo and not sure what size cam to use. I dont drive it much anymore but driveability is important. Just wondering what setups you guys are running that are close to what I want. My rwhp goal is 420-440.

SWT00SS is running a similar spec.d cam with ported stg. 2 LS6 heads with fast 90/90 and is around 440rwhp but he is a M6 also so I would say with the heads you got and the fast 90/90 if you got a cam in the mid to lower 230 duration you would be pretty close to your goal. not positive though.

You should make you goal with that setup. It's worth mentioning that with a GOOD 60', you will be in the bottom 11s, high 10s.

keep the 224 cam. youll make your rwhp goal when you add the heads and intake.

I have a tr224/112 with tsp stage 2.5 5.3 heads and ported fast 90/90 in a A4. I put down 417rwhp 407rwt.These numbers are corrected too. Uncorrected I put down 424 rwhp. My car drives almost like stock. hope this helps

tuned a similar setup with the stg.1 TEA 5.3s that made 399rwhp corrected through his A4 and he ran an 11.36 at 118.5ish on heavy ZR1s and drag radials

I might go ahead and do a torquer v2 cam, but not sure about lsa. I want the sound of a 112, but the driveability headaches that accompanies it. Would a 113 be ok middle ground or just stick with a 114. Thanks for the advice guys, much appreciated.

11.36 I'd be happy with that!!

I'm will to bet that them heavy wheels ate some Hp. I wonder what it would have done with lighter wheels,either way great numbers

Who is tuning and how good is this person? My cam is on a 112. The first time it was installed it was awful!! It stalled all the time,and took for ever just to get it to idle and run. So I whent looking for another tuner. I found this guy who has tuned my friend gillbot's car and it is an A4 and on a 110lsa and it does not stall and fires right up on the first try. I had this guy tune my car,and it starts right up even if its below 20deg outside. It drives close to stock.I have a new cam going in and its on a 111 lsa,well actually between 111 and 112. I would take a ride in a few cars with diff size cams/lsa and determine what is streetable for you and find a good tuner. My first tuner had difficulties. He said it was his first time with a 98. The new guy I hired drives a 98 so it was not a problem for him
