TTT, could someone please tell me how streetable the xe 224/230 and a 2800 stall would be. does that cam give pretty good gains over the hot cam or say the cc305.

thanks,
Dustin

 

DEZ.when you say streetable what do you mean. Believe it or not thats kinda vague. You gonna be driving it how often and for what? Going to work in traffic......just for cruisin.....???

 

I will be driving my car mostly on the weekends and every now and then to work and school. its not my only car so i don't have to drive it every day. on the weekends i want to be able to crusie it through town in some traffic. i don't want alot of cam surge or bucking. i would like to have a decent lope, a little more than the hot cam and the cc305 and more power than those two as well.
with the TC i don't want to have to rev it up to 2800 every time before i move at all. they will usally creep when you give it a little gas, don't they? that is for traffic reasons. also i don't want to break the tires loose every time i hit 2nd gear even under light throttle. i hope this isn't asking to much.

thanks,
Dustin

 

None of the things you are describing will occur with the cams you are considering and a 2,800 stall converter. Don't worry, be happy. I was amazed to find out that my car is fairly easy to drive with a 4,200rpm stall. Wouldn't want to do alot of ruch hour stop and go, but for general day to day driving it's fine.

Get a GOOD tranny cooler though. I like coolers with a fan, I am using this one from B&M http://www.bmracing.com/products/acc...es/hiTekCooler It's very compact and efficient.

Dude the 224/230 from what I hear isn't much different then the Hot Cam.

 

Really, i thought that the xe224/230 was a bit bigger and more aggresive than the hot cam.
