Nice man, I have the same cam as you do and I'll be getting a tune from Ion here at the end of the week. My previous time wasnt as good as it should have been, but hopefully the tune will fix that.

let me know if you get it dynoed or if you run the 1/4 with your set up. it will be interesting to see how we compare with the same cam.
where are you from?

Yeah something is not right with that....... That cam is basically the same as the hotcam right?? With my hotcam and the same headers i put down 335 rwhp.....maybe its cause i am a M6 with 4.10's??

yeah that's kinda what i'm thinking. i was expecting about 320-325hp through the A4 once the bugs are worked out.
again though, i went to the dyno so i can work the bugs out, not to see if i was making 320hp. but if it is still low dyno numbers once i feel the tuning is at it's best then i'm going to begin wondering what might be wrong. i think after Ion's next tune, it should be real close to being as good as he can make it.

I think 320 is very possible.. Maybe more. The reason it is somewhat rich on the first try is that Michael thought it may be already lean and I didn't want to lean it out much more. It will be right soon though.

It's a wolf jumping over a sheep.
Normally they steal/eat sheep but this one is... mad.

I'm in VA, Norfolk to be exact. Yeah I'll be sure to post what happened. Ion said i should be close to 104-106mph traps, which would be great. The only real difference between us is you're an auto with 2.73s, im a M6 with 3.42s, and you have 1.6 RRs and I cant drive this thing right yet

I get paid on friday, so I'll send out my order then. Hopefully I should have it in by next week so I'll definitely get some SOTP results, and then I'll have to try to get off of work so i can hit the track or hit the dyno on one of my days off.

MKent and WhiteSSP,

Good luck with your tuning. That cam has a lot of potential.

It's my cam of choice, along with the Crane 210/224, CC305 and the Hotcam

lol, you sound like me naming my favorite baseball team--i like the indians, the A's, the reds, and the cubs! it's hard to like just one!
thanks for the luck though, i'm sure Ion will get the tuning right on, and I won't see any of my potential until i get these gears changed anyways, but it's still fun to be able to say my car was going 177mph on the dyno.
...i believe that was 3rd gear, so does that mean i could have hit over 200mph in 4th? wind resistance sucks!

you most likely would not be able to pull up to redline in 4th. so, no... mabye if you had 400RWHP you could...
I dont think gears make a difference on the dyno But the M6 will always look better on the dyno, stock vs stock I think a M6 will dyno 10-20 higher.
