c5Z what cam with nitrous
 
hey guys, i'm going to be doing a cam soon. My car is being fed a 150 wet shot through a plate.. I want a nasty cam but i also want something that's gonna get the best out of the nitrous as well.

I want a cam with a nasty nasty lope. I don't wanna go too big just for the lope and end up losing low end torque..My car is a DD in the summer and is also used for Drag racing.

I was looking at the speed inc SI7 cam..it is 238/244 .605/.612 110LSA..I've had a few people tell me to turn away from the cam because it's too big..

I don't want the cam being a "nitrous specific" cam..I want it to be a all around cam on motor but also get the best out of the spray if this makes any sense lol..

My car has ran a best of 11.2 @ 128mph 1.8 60ft..on a 125 shot with a vararam and full exhaust on a stock clutch..

Our stage 2 cam will make great power on motor and even more on the jug.

I wont argue with a big cam but don't sacrifice to much drivability if you DD it at times... just do a nice cam that drives good you ll make big power on the juice no matter what

TSP 233/239 or SNL v4 - I've been told both will work great with nitrous. I'll be testing out the SNL v4 with 100-150 shot this summer.

Not sure he'll throw the specs out there, but as you may already know, his reputation speaks for itself. The specs are something that will provide reasonably good driveability and great performance on and off the nitrous. :yesnod:

I would say something in the 230's for the intake and 240's exhaust with an 8-10* split on a 112lsa or less would work well.

234/244 112 should make great power and drive great with a good tune.
