Default LS3 Cammed Results!

We just finished a cam install in this beautiful 2010 Camaro. Car sounds good, drives very very well, and has tons of bottom end grunt and torque. Unfortunately the shop that did the work previous to us used a set of cheaper headers with 1 3/4 primaries and 2.5 inch collectors. The car has the factory H pipe, and resonators. On top of that two primaries, one on each side, where beat almost completely closed to fit around the engine mounts. This explains the low baseline and low finished number.

The car had a dynosheet left in the glove box showing 405 rwhp uncorrected in April. It baselined 392-395 SAE corrected with us.

Still can't beat a 52 rwhp gain with compromised exhaust! We are shooting to see another 20 ftlbs of torque and 20 rwhp when he comes back for a 1 7/8's KOOKS header swap.

Kooks headers seem to make the HP and TQ alot better on most cases. Great gains.

Any idle clips? What size cam?
