LS6 vs LS9 cam for S475 turbo LQ9?
#3
With a T6 housing, I'd use the LS9 which I'm pretty sure has more split to the exhaust side but at the end of the day, it's not going to be much a difference between the 2 and you can easily compensate with more or less boost.

currently there is a tsp tsunami cam in it. 235/240 648"/609",111 lsa, which from what i understand is a terrible turbo cam?
so i have the lq9 cam on the shelf or i'll have to go buy a ls6/ls9 cam if it is worth it

I ran 6.73 @ 103 and that's at 3950 lbs,,,if your in a 3k fox...well you'll easily go faster

i would ideally like to see something in the 6.2x range when it's all together or possibly faster.

With that turbo and those heads, I'd use the Tsunami. It will outperform the LS6 and LS9 cams. Assuming it's a T6 exhaust housing. IF it's a T4 then no.

What's the worst that can happen? Put the kit together, run it as is and make some pulls on the dyno or at the track. If you don't think that it's working right at that time, you'll atleast have data to compare against once you switch to which ever other cam at that time. It's not like swapping a cam is the end of the world as long as you already have the springs installed.

went to the track tonight, ran a handful of 7.0's before a belt slippage problem finally got so bad i had to call it a night and drive home before she left me stranded.

Isky 212 spools really quick in my lq4. Went 10.5@130mph in my 4900lb 4x4 with a T78 on 91oct/meth. This was on stock 245/70/17 tires rolling into the throttle. I'm pretty sure with the slicks and GT76 it's in the 9's at mid to high 130's mph.
