LPE GT2-3 Cam Dyno Results Here's what all I have...FLP Headers with Cats, FTRA, ASP Pulley, Direct Flow Lid with K&N, SLP Dual/Dual Exhaust with a Magnaflow Muffler and a LPE GT2-3 cam (207/220/ 573/580 118.5LSA) with 918's. Do these #'s seem right? I hit 370.4rwhp and 354.5 rwt. It's funny cause my torque stayed the same after the Cam install. Well I do know it feels good either way.

1. Pull the cats for the dyno pull.
2. Install a 3.5" or larger cuttout in the Y-pipe.
3. Use a 3" into 4" Y-pipe with a 4" collector
4. Set the timing advance to 28-30 degrees if you can do so without KR.
5. Install a well ported TB.
6. Install TR-6s gapped at .048.
7. Install a 160 degree thermostat.
8. Get the mixture set at 13:1.
9. If all else fails, install a 90mm LSX intake (ok, getting expensive here! You probably won't need this step to reach your goal but I thought I'd throw it in there anyway just in case.)
You'll get your 385 RWHP.

Your numbers look right on to me...That camshaft is very similar to the LS6 camshaft and bolt-on Z06s usually make between 370-390RWHP (with LS6 heads). Like colonel said if you dump the cats and tune the car you will probably see 15 more RWHP, I am sure it is a monster as is.
PS: I took a job with lowe's and will be moving down there in February, we will have to get together and BS about cars sometime.

Congrats on the numbers fastmatt, very respectable!!
This might be a good time to point out that the GT2-3 cam & LS6 spring combo is currently on sale for $399.95!! Full details can be seen here:

Fastmatt98, What kind of dyno were you on and what were your #'s before the cam install?
I have the same cam sitting in the basement waiting for a spring install. I just want to know what I can expect. Can't wait.
Good #'s

Before the cam and pulley I made 339 rwhp and 354rwt so my torque didnt move at all but gained 31rwhp with those two things which in my book isnt bad considering it still act like the stock cam.

Moregrip,
The GT2-3 will work great with your setup, you may have to run a smaller pulley to get your boost back up, but you will see approx. 20-30 more horse power at the same boost level.
The GT2-3 cam & LS6 spring combo is still on sale at $399.95
Hope this helps,
Ed
