Default Dyno results from Intake/Exhaust Swap, Best Money I Ever Spent!

I finally got my new LS6 intake, ported throttle body, and True Duals on the car and tuned last night. I was really happy with the results, picked up 40 hp and 27 ft. lbs. of torque.

Here's a rough list of mods to the car:

Forged 383, 11.5:1 cr.
Ported Stock Heads w/ bigger valves, Hotcam, 1.8 rr
lid, Kook's LT's, 3.73's, 3800 Yank Stall

Now LS6 intake, ported tb, got rid of Flowmaster and put on TSP Duals w/Dynomax Bullets.

The car made 400 rwhp/405 rwtq with a nice curve, up from 360 rwhp/378 rwtq before. I'm pleased with the gains and love the way the car sounds with the duals, now I just need to get it to the track.

Before it's said a dozen times, the Hotcam isn't staying in permanently, I'm going bigger whenever my wallet permits, just haven't made up my mind what to yet. But I like the driveability and ease on the valvetrain, and if I get some really good times with it, it might stay in longer than expected.

I hope someone from Texas Speed sees this thread, hats off to them on a great exhaust setup and good recommendations on parts and second to none customer service. They'll probably be the guys I talk to when it comes time for a bigger cam.

a bigger cam and a set of TSP's LS6 heads cnc complete assembly for $999 and you should see a gain of 60-70hp and tq should go up with it. after my old LS6 is out, im doing a budget 394ci stroker in my girls SS. im shooting for 490/460 with porting her LS1's heads to flow 304-308 cfm at .600 lift.

I've been thinking about getting a MS3, not sure if I'd see enough gains out of a head swap to be cost efficent. Might get a 100 shot instead of heads, I want to get 10's out of it, but don't know if I'll be able to or not.
