I know 2 other Z06's running the TREX on stock heads and they are putting down 451/396 and 448/398.
He was comparing it to the MS3. I would love to see your car and the other two you mentioned at the track together and have you guys switch out cars. This way you can tell us which cam performs better and get some real world feed back with people driving both cams .

That would be ideal. Maybe I will be able to get to the Z06 Fest this summer and this will be possible. The rev limiter is set at 6900 on my car.

Here are a couple soundclips of mine. I have the idle set at 1000rpms when warm but want to put it back down to 900 for tha massive lope. I'm still playing with the tune so hopefully I can get the idle down and still retain drivability as you can hear the car wants to die after reving.


Enjoy!



Note: On the 5ft clips the camera is really too close to the exhaust and because it is so loud the sound gets a bit weird. Camera was position directly behind the car and all clips.

Wow, nice numbers. Get a CAI, pulley and port the intake/TB or get a FAST and you'll be right near 450rwHP ....
