Goal to build car to a fun street toy
Have a 2010 C6 base I have had a bunch of threads of ideas and apologies for multiple threads.. figure j will put it out that I want a fun street car. Sound good. Drive good and be reliable. I am thi kJ gets a yank2800 or so stall btr stage 3 long tube and X pipe and tune. Figure it will be a good 475+rwhp car that would be a blast to cruise and drive. Any ideas?

You are saying that you are looking for 475 RWHP with the same setup as I had, except you will have a BTR Stage 3 cam ... Well, I don't know if a cam change is going to get you an extra 70 RWHP.
Personally, I think a Stage 3 cam is too much cam for your car as it is now .... I think the Stage 2 cam will be more than plenty without the driveability of the car suffering.
A big cam will put a smile on your face for the first couple of months, but, I can promise you that sooner or later you will wish you had not put that big of cam in it ... FACT
Hey ... it's your car

Well after emailing btr back and forth. They suggested a stage 2 would be good and use the 2800 if I did decide to run the stage 3 then I should go 3600 stall. I am thinking I am going to choose the stage 2 and 2800 stall like I said it’s a weekend car to enjoy and have fun. Not going to race and love around more count roads not interstates or big roads. So not going to get to wild with it

After going through this myself a couple months ago, let me share my experience. It will be much louder after the header install, even with stock exhaust. BTR recommended the same cam for me, but I went with a cam that is similar to the BTR Stage 3 except more lift and exhaust duration. The rocking chop can be tiresome at an idle. YMMV.
Good luck my fellow Corvette enthusiast, hope it turns out exactly to be what you want.
