Default C6 LS2 Hot Cam Dyno

Here's the dyno for a 2007 C6 LS2 with a Callaway Honker intake, Melrose LT headers with high flow cats and Corsa cat-back and the GM Hot Cam.

The chart compares the car with the Honker and headers before the cam to after the cam. I'm thinking that this dyno may be a little stingy.
I have to say the car drives pretty much like stock, it has a nice lope to the idle but otherwise the car just has more power once you hit 3500.
I kind of thought it would make better torque down low.

He told me the peak has something to do with the transition to PE on the C6 (?), I've always been happy with the work he did on the C5's I've taken there.

Not bad for a cam that most people either hate or overlook. There is no loss of torque in the low end but with gains in the mid to upper range. Add a FAST intake to this and it would make some good numbers. Is this an auto or m6?

I wonder how much better the GM ASA cam would do?

It's a M6 (Z51 with the M12 box) I tried looking all over and I never saw a graph for a Hot Cam LS2 in a C6, so I figured I'd post it in case people wanted to see.
I thought about the ASA cam as well but it was designed for higher RPM circle track racing, with this being a street car I just wanted it to be strong in the bottom end and mid range.

Thanks for posting! I was always curious what that cam would do in an LS2. I've seen the graphs of the GM ASA cam on LS1's here and the torque curve is pretty flat like the graph you posted. Maybe you might want to reconsider it in the future? I've seen a guy on here, I think his handle is Cyclerage, he had the ASA cam with the GM Performance Parts ported LS6 cylinder heads on a frc vette and was running low 11's with it. Maybe I'll put the ASA cam in just for fun and see what happens. If you ever decide to install the ASA cam on an LS2, post it up. I'm sure there are other people that would be curious too.
