I've noticed the stock valvetrain components on the C6 are quiet, in fact I couldn't tell any noticeable difference from the stock cam to the Summit cam but damn if it didn't wake things up! Very impressive gains indeed and I'm looking forward to seeing more of Mavn's results.

Pretty unexpected result there. Looks a bit flatter on the top end? The 469 pull looks like it is rolling over more at 160mph. Typically the rod mod intakes really start doing their thing above 6000+. I have heard some people become timing limited with them. Maybe the E85 will help.
I thought the injectors from the blown cars have different spray patterns that don't work as well in NA applications? Maybe hearsay, but it made sense when I read it.
How's the manifold vacuum at high rpm?

No excuses but only variable I see would be the difference in DA, humidity and temperature wise.
Would be cool to see if there was any difference in torque or compare the graphs directly (stock intake to modded).
Eitherway, thanks once again for completing this test! And good luck at the track bro.
