Well, I finally pulled the trigger and went with a cam install. The guys at TTP did a phenominal job (as usual). I got the Equalizer V3, Melling oil pump, Rollmaster double roller chain, and Patriot Gold springs, Trickflow pushrods, tuned and installed. I am very pleased with the numbers to say the least :

Uncorrected: 420.97 rwhp, 390.31 rwtq
Corrected: 395.26 rwhp, 366.47 rwtq

The car is cam only with all the supporting bolt ons listed in my sig.

W/stock heads and intake?? Impressive. Do you have any vids w/the Corsa sport and the cam?? Thinking of making a switch.

Yep. Stock heads, and intake; just a p&p's throttle body from Janzter. I'll try to get a video tomorrow. Can't promise too much quality on the vid; I'll try it on my dig camera. Funny thing is, it's really no louder with the Corsa sport; just has a very aggressive idle. If anything, there is actually less "popping" on decel with this cam. It's really quite amazing how strong this thing pulls. Can't wait to get some heads and an intake on this beast.

Sounds mean, nice GTO.

They don't like to give out their cam specs. They did tell me that it has an lsa of 112, but that's all the info TTP will give out.

your car does sound badass...... i have almost the same setup.... i think that cam is very simular to mine... what is the diff.... between the corrected and uncorrected.... i made 395hp/360tq..... and man is that exh... loud.....

Uncorrected hp numbers are what the car is actually making here in NJ at this time of year, i.e. in the shop on the dyno in 60* temp. The SAE corrected hp numbers have a correction factor in the equation to make the numbers consistent with a car dynoed in, lets say California, in 75* temp.

Soo if you could do it over again, would you go w/the Touring version of the Corsa or do you still like the Sport?

drburns

Tough call. I think I would still do the sport. I absolutely love the sound. If you're worried about neighbors, police, etc, then do the touring. The sport with this cam is the most aggressive sound imaginable. I love it.

DAMMIT! Now I have to mod my GTO. That idle is as good as an obscenely hot chick.
