If I understand you correctly, don't worry about it being too loud or drone at highway speed. Specially if you have NPP. I have TSP catless and NPP on 7.5psi and Alky Control. It sounds like all hell is breaking loose when the flaps are open but close them and she's as quiet as you'd ever want it. Really!

So no dyno video today. Spoke to Chris today and he is having issues with the vvt1 cam and phaser block in my 16 2LT A8. A lot of what he said was to technical for me i admit. He said they are having trouble controlling the cam and the numbers were inconsistent on the dyno. He spent most of the day troubleshooting the issue and came up with this. Comp Cams needs to create a new phaser block for the changes made to the 2016 engine. He says he is confident they will make it right and that he is not satisfied with the way the car is right now. He also said he is confident in me taking the car and driving it however i want after they go with a heavier oil like 10-40 until they get what they need. A little disapointed but appreciate his honesty and dedication. Anyone heard of or had this issue with a vvt cam in a 16? Any and all opinions wanted.

your car sounds awesome. Did you solve the issue with the phaser block. I spoke with comp about a cam and their tech said that the phaser block doesnt work on gen v lt1. But there are a bunch of cammed c7 outhere.
