Default Mean sounding CAM
I am looking for suggestions on getting a CAM for TTIX car. If you have a sound clip with that cam installed, please share that too. I do have DMH cut outs as well. Rebuilding the motor and its time to change the cam to something more aggressive and that would sound mean (old school muscle car).

I have a TTix grind that lopes-how many cubes is your motor and what's the compression?

Having a cam is a fine balance between sound and performance. Luckly for you Arun delivers both. Trust what he recommends. Can't go wrong.

In prior applications, I found that cams that SOUNDED good ran like crap with turbos - the longer duration and especially overlap resulted in lower boost and longer lag time with poor around town performance. Mind you, that was with carbs not FI. I have stock cam in with my TT, but will upgrade at some point.

Here's my 370 with a custom spec. It would be a little much for a turbo set up imo.

my car is identical to this in everyway, i love how this cam drives and runs. midrange is phenomenal and so is top end, low end barely lost a few. to me its probabaly one of the best vids on youtube on a cammed c5.
