Default Power To Expect??

I will be taking my car in for a cam swap. Just wondering if anyone is using this cam and how they like it? Anyone have sound clips? Also what kinda of power to expect for this. Comp Cam 238/242 .605 .06 on a 113 LSA. Supporting mods are headers/catback/intake/valvetrain/underdrive pulley/all the other misc that goes into the install. Car is a 04 Z06

Just did a 02Z. Dynotech longtubes, factory Ti, forum intake mod, comp 232/236,595/601, 113 lsa, stock heads and stock intake manifold.
Jeremy at Fasterproms dyno tuned it last Monday. It did 413/387. Was kinda disappointed with those numbers but I can tell you the car runs really good. It feels as fast as my 07Z although I know in reality it's not. I'am very happy with the way it turned out. Might do some heads later on.

You guys are over estimating... sort of like those who claim 400rwhp with just long tubes. I will venture to say 425-430rwhp max, but of course every dyno is different.

I will be happy with 430. As long as it makes over 420 then I will be happy.

Well I have been waiting to. Im on the edge of my seat. But they had to change my O2's and they will be tuning it today. I will let them out as soon as I know. The O2's where bad and the car was dumping to much fuel so they had to order O2's. But he said it would be on the dyno today.
