Right now my car has TSP F-35 Camshaft

AirAid cai, 178 TSP LT, HI flow cats, 3'' Stainless exhaust pipe with stock mufflers.

480/440. What’s the reason for swapping out the cam?

504 whp is very high for a cam already. Why change the specs? Is that a boosted cam?

Thank you all,

I'm living in Bahrain, laws are restricted here so I'm looking for a cam with smooth idle to pass the annual inspection and the checkpoints

I am expecting at least 25hp lost peak, with some good gains down low. Obviously the top end won't pull as hard as before, but the low end should feel more responsive.

Obviously I am just guessing based on cam comparisons. My guess is around 475/440, assuming that your original dyno pull was a bit on the high side.

In for what you experience. I just installed an almost identical spec cam. 220/230 117 lsa. Made 447/440. You will lose whp from where your current setup.



Make sure to follow up with how it does.


My car is at the installer now, haven't driven it yet.
