Your cam also has 10 degrees of overlap. They are actually pretty similar.

Your car sounds great too

Have you ordered it yet? I think you have changed your mind on cams about as many times as I did. This one, no that one, I kinda like this one too.

Sorry to bring this back up but, I was all ways told and have all ways read that dynojets will have higher numbers then a mustang dyno. So you guys are saying a low 230's cam in a m6 makes 400rwhp on a dynojet? A friend with a kb on his 02 gt put down 470 on a dyno jet, then 400 on a mustang dyno.

i dont get it

when i was cam only i made 395rwhp on a Mustang Dyno with a 232/234 cam. mustang dynos are typically more stingy with the numbers compared with a dyno jet

dynojet is bout 15-20 RWHP higher than a Mustang Dyno. A Mustang Dyno has an eddie current which gives you a more accurate HP/TQ numbers

My car has already been tuned by nick at newtech so a retune is cheaper. So there are guys on Norcal that tune?
