So Im about to get my car back up and running, and just still in a debate on what cam to go with. The car will be turbo by next year, but Id like it to still make some good power in the mean time. If I go with the Stage 2 LS2 turbo cam over the torquemax stage 3, will the car still make decent power N/A? On the other hand, how much will I be loosing from the additional overlap of the torquemax if I run it with a turbo down the road?
It will depend on which SC cam you go with.
Idle in the video is set at 800, but I am still playing with the idle to get it just right.
When i spoke with Martin over the phone, i told him my setup (stock ls1, street car, stalled auto, 7875 turbo) he recommended that i get this cam, the Stage 2 LS2 cam. I didn't know the difference between the LS1/LS6 and the LS2 cam at the time so I'm hoping this is the better choice cam for my setup?? Any info Martin?

Im running a 5.3 with a215/215 112lsa and a tc78 1.15 AR . Im going to swap turbos regardless to either borg warner 75/83 or the new Tnetics unit. Question is how bad is my current cam hurting me with my current turbo. Im sure back pressure is ridiculous! Currently has ran 128mph with 9psi and is now on 14.5psi and feels like 134-136. Goal is 140+

Wow I appreciate your honesty! Now do you think a bw 75/83 will make more beans then a tnetics 78/75? I will probly come out a little cheaper doing the bw once I take the new downpipe ill need to have fabbed up
