Default Tsp 228.

I'm planning on going with a tsp 228 on a 110 lsa, my question is will I have a problem with my brakes cuz of the vacuum? An will let it murder my mpg? I kno it depends how u drive and all but was wondering what everyone else is doing mpg wise. Lq9 in a obs rcsb with a 3800 stalled 4l80 with 3.42s.

Shouldnt have any problem with brakes, that is not a huge cam for a 6.0. Cant comment on mpg though as I have not run that setup.

If the tune isn't right, you could have problems with the brakes. A combination of high idle, "cruise control" effect, and diminished vacuum at idle will lead to weaker brakes.
