Thunder Racing CheaTR package
I got to hear BlackHawk J's car after the cam went in, and the idle was VERY smooth and stock-sounding. I wouldn't have thought it was cam'd if I hadn't known better.
So SS4Luck, I would say it sounds essentially just like a stock motor.
BlackHawk J, you have a very nice car by the way!

Thanks for the compliments. One of the gentlemen there told me that they tested it on a stock LS1 and the cam made 360 hp to the wheels. I just drove out there today (forgot my stock parts there, oops), and I can say it pulls real nicely in 6th on the highway. There is definately a seat of the pants feel and the sound effects are cool too! I dont have a sound clip but I can tell you it racks up bonus points in the sound department.

wow, hot topic, and loads o info with just the 31,,,heres another question about the cheater,,,how would this compare to a reverse split,,,i know the exhaust in our stock heads is weak compared to the intake, so, if not going with heads, would i be better with a reverse instead of the cheater? i know,,,damn newbies.

My stage II patriot & CheatR combo makes 388 rwhp through a 12-bolt. Through a 10-bolt I bet it would be 400 rwhp. A fast intake would probably put me over 400 also. So yes, I think you can do it with the Patriots. If you run headers you will be well over 400, but if i was going to run headers I would choose another cam.
