Thumbs up Cam install + bolt ons dyno

So I just got my car back from a cam install at Race Proven Motorsports and I must say they did an excellent job with my car. Top notch customer service and amazing work. I would highly recommend them to anyone. The car is awesome above 4000rpms and drives near stock at low rpms. Not to mention it sounds bad ***. My current set up:

2000 LS1 motor in a 1996 z28 Convertible
23x/23x 114 lsa with <.600 lift
LS6 intake
P&P throttle body
LT1 style cold air intake
BBK long tube headers + 2.5'' y pipe
M6 with stock 10-bolt 3.42

(I believe this is on a mustang dyno)
Before peak#s: 330whp 341wtq
After peak#s: 366whp 349wtq
Gained approximately 50whp at 6200 rpms

I think my stock cat-back may be holding me back a bit but the car is not a max hp effort as it is a weekend driven convertible that as of now looks bone stock. I am hoping to do heads when I am done with grad school (Ph.D in Biochemistry) which I believe should really compliment the cam liking to rev. Attached is a picture of the before/after dyno.

Thanks again to Race Proven Motorsports.

Nice job! The power gain is very realistic looking...not like some of those inflated claims

Car in sig made 7hp more going out a 3.5" electric cutout right off the 3.5" ypipe vs through the stock catback on back to back runs.

That looks like a dyno jet printout to me ,could be wrong though. Either way solid gains!

Thanks guys! As I said I am really happy with everything. And it is probably a dynojet then, I wasnt sure. Jrenigar, how do you like the cut out? I have been going back and forth between getting one or a magnaflow catback.

Best sounding exhaust I have had on all 4 fbody's I have owned. It can be almost whisper quiet closed then sound like td's turned down in about 2seconds with the flip of a rocker switch. No rasp when a magnaflow bullet muffler is used before it right off the oryp either. Hard to believe but its true.
