wow, awesome build. I love the look of the car, very tastefully done.

 

Yea, AWSOME job on everything, keep up the goodwork and keep the pics coming. Huge difference visually. Have you been able to drive it yet? If so notice the difference in performance?

 

car looks fantastic, definitely a lot of work involved there

 

Thanks man

Thanks, and I've put about 800 miles on it since I did the cam install, yes the power range and throttle response is much better, but not where it should be, still haven't been able to get a tune yet. A lot of set backs during the install cause me to use up more money then I had planed, but the good news is my pcm should go out to PCMforless with in the next week or 2. I rode in my friends car with the same setup plus the tune and its a huge difference in power, so I can't wait to get my pcm tune back.

BTW, my car dyno all stock at 170.9 rwhp, and the GT2 cam and mods that I have usually dyno around 225-240 rwhp, I've seen a few with higher numbers, that have been able to get a reall live dyno tune.

Thanks and yes it been a lot of work at times.
