Default LM Speed kit goes 545/550

I had some great help in getting my car tuned this past week, Mike and Ron from Vengeance came out to Hawaii to do some work on 6 of my friends cars and mine, I'm so stoked, they did some amazing work in just a matter of hours that had all of us straightened out and making some great power, and smooth driveability. Here's a couple of vids of my car on the dyna-pack dyno in a local shop about 1am.

It isn't 574, but i'll take it!! I talked to the dyna-pack owner and he told all of us that night that he has tested his dyno against local dynojet shops and his dyna-pack reads 7% lower than the dynojets, so those numbers are with the 7% added in for dynojet. I can try to get some of the graphs scanned in, unfortunately my scanner sucks, and the graphs started at 3514rpms, and showed a spike of 542rwtq when the load was let go and then it dropped to 490's staying with a nice curve. I'm going to put my car on a local dynojet sometime soon hopefully and test it out to see if the dyna-pack does read lower or not. I love the sound of the blower in the second clip!!!

Cam is a blower grind from Comp spec'd at 226/234 .598/.599 and a 117LSA. Baby cam kinda, no lope or anything. Sounds like a stock Camaro with different exhaust until the loud pedal hits the floor, then it's loud and gone.
