Default New cam installed

I just recently had a Comp Cam 230/232 112+2LSA installed. So far I am happy with how the car performs. I wanted something that had mid range to top end power. Does anyone else have this cam or familiar with this? I couldnt afford to do anything to the heads, cam package install only. RPM in Garner, NC did the tune. The dyno numbers came out to 377 rwhp and 354torque. Do these numbers seem about right? Seems pretty good to me. My previous numbers were 344 rwhp and 350 torque.

The mods prior to cam included:
3600 stall
Long tube headers
ORY pipe
magnaflow catback (w/ electric cutout)
LS6 intake
Port and Polished stock throttle body
SLP Lid and Cold Air Intake
MSD ignition coil packs
Underdrive pulley
Stock rear end 3.23 gears

Any opinions on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Mike

Those #'s seem just about right through an A-4. Get it out to the Track and get some real #'s, Cause Dyno #'s are just a Pissing contest!!!! LOL

I made 417 on that dyno with essentally the same mods except I had PRC 5.3 heads and a 90/90 so I would say that is about right. Two years and 30k later made 415. Your TQ seems a little low though as I had 383 ft. lbs.. Cam was very close as mine was a 230/234

yeah I was starting to wonder the same thing, why the torque numbers only went up 4-5. Could the temperature and humidity play a big role when the car was dynoed?

it could affect but should be a major part of it
one thing that should be considered if the car was dynoed on the same dyno
diffrent dynos give different numbers u know
the calibration on one of the dynos might be diffrent from the other
