Default SPEEDS Z06 Walkaround Vindicator Cam/Exhaust

well as some of you know, I put a HUGE *** cam in the Z06 a few mths ago, (Vindicator from Vengance Racing) and only yielded 386whp/369 lb ft after the tune...i knew the stock exhaust was killing me...last weekend i installed a set of Texas Speed Long tubes and 3in Xpipe with cat deletes... went back to the dyno yesterday and got some new numbers... after EFI spent about an hour on it, the car made an AMAZING 422rwhp/400 lb ft tq... thats an increase of 36 rwhp and over 30 tq!...

here is a little walkaround at idle, car sounds so nasty WOT... sorry its dark...il try and get the dyno vid up soon...

Nice!
Yes sir, the only mods are cam, lts, xpipe...I'm running stock axle back and stock mufflers... stock titanium will do the job no need to spend money on aftermarket for maybe another 5whp...

oh yes, not the best cam for daily driving but i have no issues and i love it... it makes BIG power, i made 422rwhp Cam and LT's only, stock TB, Intake, heads and all... i would definitely recommend this cam.

Thats because the op's car has ls6 243 heads and ls6 intake... wich is a big difference from 241 heads and the ls1 intake...

Speed your vette sound sick, love it!

thanks bud... yea the heads and the intake make a good bit difference...i could squeeze out another 20-30whp if i ported the TB and did a pulley and other basic mods., i could probably get 450whp on the stock 243's untouched. screw it im just gonna spray it

thanks for the compliments, clutch is slipping im in process of getting a textralia put in
