F/S: MILD CAM FOR LS2

MODVETTE05

New member
7 WEEKS OLD! Installed on 12/1/06, in my 2005 A4 vert.
Cam stats are: 220/224 114.0 Lift is .532 and is made by Comp Cams.
--------------------------
Why is it coming out? the wife refuses to drive the car!!! She hates the mild lope of the cam. She doesn't like the noise it makes; the quiet stock car sound spoiled her during the 1st year and half prior to its install, I guess. The car was supposed to be for the two of us, not just me. I was bought for both of us to use. Get the picture. Anyway, the stock cam is back in and I now have this cam for sale the cost new $450.00 that i am selling for $200.00 plus shipping.
I do not have pay pal so certified funds would be necessary prior to shipment. I'd be able to fax a copy of the Bill of Sale of the cam and the cam card if necessary.
I can be reached at 727-688-8739. Please call between 8 am and 10 pm EST.

Did you notice any gains in power, and did you have other mods done with the cam?

According to the dyno, I gained 22 RWHP but lost 10 rwtq! And what I did notice was the change in power but it was more like a change in the motors' power band range. The car now pulls like a race horse after 15-20 mph and all the way up to red line. Mild cam as it was, it felt strong and you rarely felt intimidated by anyone.

BUT, mind my mods up to this point were the following: (My)Stage I: Changed the stock rear gears from a 2:73 rato to a new, out of the box 3:42 ratio rear; Calloway Intake, 8.5 mm wires with socks, 160 thermostat; Melrose coated headers, random hi-flo cats with x-pipe BUT I kept STOCK mufflers after I tried the system with my Corsa's Sports and thought them to be WAY TOO LOUD for me. (My)STAGE II: changed the stock rockers from 1.7's to 1.8's, chg'd to heavy duty springs and push rods and titanium lifters (AND re-dyno'd); (My)Stage III: NOW I added the cam AND port and polished the TB AND INTAKE.
TOTAL DYNO HP NOW AT THE REAR WHEELS WAS 385. Not too bad for an base A4 mind you! And with the cam I checked my 1/4 mile with the Escort G-2 meter, which is supposed to be fairly, fairly accurate but but a little under actual time and my best time I ran on the street was a 12.7 sec at 111.4 MPH-ain't too shabby even though I've heard some guys say they've posted close to that with supposedly stock MN6 Z51 cars-although I must say with the headers and cam I would've been more than happy to run those supposedly stock cars any day of the week.
My guess is if you're planning on buying this cam, you may or may not :shrug01: , have to change your rockers to 1.8's, which by the way, gave me gobs of torque and that alone was one of the best moves you could do for your car with or with out a cam change! Changing those rockers is like upgrading the weakest link in the chain, so to speak-as I've been told, which, if you think about it, seems to make sense!
Anyway, the cam is in excellent condition and is a very good buy if you're interested. So, if you are, please don't hesitate to call me or pm me again, as I appreciate you interest in this matter. Hope this info helps...
Thank you,

Sal :wavey:
