Default Numbers from new cam (LS2 M6)

Had a new cam installed a couple weeks ago (big thanks to my buddy Chad Barton) and finally made it to the dyno i have been using to measure all of my progress from modding my 2006 M6 Z51 C6.

Previous numbers: 399/403
Mods were AR Headers w/cats, Vararam, Fast 102 unported, Ported TB & a tune.

New Numbers: 452/421 - Tuned by DSteck (Thanks Dave)
Parts replaced cam (235/239 .620/.621 112 +4), springs (Comp 26926), Pushrods (Comp Hi-Tech 7.425), 10% UD Pulley (Powerbond), Timing chain (Katech)

The story behind the cam I went with was to have something between max effort and great street manners.
Ron @ Vengeance Racing helped me with the cam and spent a decent amount of time listening to where I'm at and where I want to be when the project is complete.

The additional pieces to the project will be upgrading the MAF, porting the Fast intake and switching out the stock heads for some as cast Trick Flow 220's and bumping the compression to 11.5-11.7

Contemplating some non-adjustable rollers as well.

I am going to upgrade the MAF and possibly change out the stock rockers for a set of Yella Terra Ultra lights to see if there are any gains to be had.

Any thoughts?

Nice doode, sounds better now that it's tuned!

I personally wouldn't worry about the MAF yet but the rockers will help right away. The last mod I installed on my A6 C6 (H/C/FAST 92) was Harland Sharp rockers and I noticed the difference right away. I will use YT ultra's this time around though

Thanks Jason!

I was thinking about the non-adjustable YT ultra's also, Hinson has a sweat deal on them right now.
