Default 76 RWHP gain with LG Super Pros and G6X3 cam

Hey guys,

Just finishing up a 2008 Corvette today.

Modifications
(car had VaraRam on for baseline)
  • LG Super Pro 1 3/4 W/Cat
  • LG G6X3 cam kit
  • LG Install and Dyno Tune



Not a bad bolt on of almost 80 rwhp and 50 ft-lbs of torque!




Enjoy Randy!

Pretty good gains. Congrats. Now he'll need some new socks and shoes to put that power down.

Nice gains and pretty car (I'm an Orange fan) but the graph jaggedness makes it look like the engine wants a few more degrees of timing.

Got it, One of my sales guys rescued a bunny a few years ago and we adopted him as a shop Rabbit, he has the run of RPS, however if a phone, printer or any other cable related device fails to work Monday am it's almost always chewed in half by the rabbit...

How do you keep Roger out of the customer cars? I had one eat an injector wire a few years back and he only came out after I had parked the car out in the sun and it got too hot for him.

We have a big fuzzy dog that keeps the bunny's away.

No cars in our shop just ton's of parts, I did have my bike blown apart for paint, chrome and powder coat and Arnold helped himself to a $45 rubber gasket, we probably have $300 or so in the "Free" Rabbit.

Hey Anthony, can you pm me the price of this setup with the tune and cam install...I should be able to do the exhaust myself. It's an 08 A6 stocker. Is this the cam you recommend for a dd?

PM coming shortly.

Of course what you would like to have on the cam as to a daily driver is going to be up to you. Drivablity is a big word to a lot of different people. I have customers well into their 70's with this cam and daily driver cars.

Being your car is an auto you will have to run a higher stall torque converter with that size of camshaft, approx 3200-3600.

Little bit of info about the cam

Idle 950-1050 RPM
Power range 3000-7200 RPM
Some cam surge noticeable 1200-1500 RPM at low speeds. Primarily noticed in manual cars. Converters will generally eat this up.
Supporting modifications should be cold air intake, and long tube headers.

Wow LS3s with just a Vararam are putting down almost 400rwhp? Is that typical on most LS3 6spds?

Not to far off. They can make 378-390 rwhp stock. Isn't out of the question to see 8-10 from a CAI
