What cam specs?
Camspecs are given on a "Need to Know" basis only...

Call Chris E. and I'm sure he will tell you. I just don't have them memorized. The driving characteristics are very tame but we also have multiple hours of street tuning in the file as well...

With RC's tires you should be able to get out of the gate for a good pass before they politely ask you to leave. Car looks good with the wheels on it, I hope I can get the car back from the paint shop by tomorrow so I can venture out there in it.

I really dont know as far as other things since most of the ls7 stuff is good without mods but as far as n/a power you have lots of it and i guess every little bit adds up just not sure on the dollar per hp.

I believe that for any N/A large horsepower combination, you basically have to "Pay to Play".

I know once you get soo much power its hard to get much more. What you did was show how good the ls7 intake really works but you have obviously proven that there is something better than the stock intake.

Chris, his new N/A set up will probably run as fast as "Great White" did with the NAWS in that vid.

LOL! It just might run a better ET but not as much MPH... The old C4 ran 142mph back in 1998.

I just hope the rear differential holds up tomorrow night in the cold weather...

Not trying to bash your car because I think its badass and thats alot of power to put to the ground.
The peak numbers dont show how much it increased through out the entire rpm range. The numbers are higher in the midrange. Is the intake expensive for peak numbers- yes. Is it worth it as mod that makes more power and torque without sacrificing driveability- most definately.

Hey Nick are my wheels all shiny and pretty yet?

RC is correct. Drivability is much smoother and mid range numbers are pretty impressive.

RC, I'm cleaning them right now and they are probably looking like they were when you bought them new! Damn I love these rims! I'll post pics in a few minutes...
