Congrats again on your TT camaro. Great numbers with conservative dyno. I have nothing but good to say about IPS. My IPS TT will be on dyno next week, first IPS build Fore dual hat return fuel system upgrade with aeromotive pumps on test too. Enough fuel for stock engine...

Generally speaking turbo camshaft differ from "stock" camshaft (like ls-3) or supercharged cam . Usually you want to have less overlap (like supercharger cam), which leads to bigger lobe separation angles. Biggest difference on turbo cam is less exhaust duration than supercharger cam because turbocharger itself is an exhaust restriction that increases exhaust gas pressure, and it's the exhaust gas pressure that spins the turbo. Therefore a milder (aftermarket) cam with lower duration on exhaust side helps exploid boost enchnching exhaust gas pressure.
My 2 cents....

Thanks!

We had issues with a tight converter / trans-brake / no boost issue off the line (Best 60-ft of the whole weekend was like a 1.52) but bumping boost from 21 to 23psi jumped our trap speed up to 180mph

We didn't improve our ET (Close with a 8.19) but when this turbo gets in the 30psi range and we can leave the line on boost the car should really be flying

I would love to see a print out of your dyno graph vs a s/c graph making about the same power. Nice package you have there!

I'm guessing that a centrifical would be a similar curve. A Maggie might pull more bottom end faster. I think that both would require more boost to hang. Just my gut. I have owned all of the above setups.

I would like to see it also.

Here is a graph of a stock 6-speed car with our turbo kit (GT3582 Turbos) at 8psi compared to a D1 Procharged car w/Heads & Cam & Headers Etc. on 8psi:

Everyone who has looked at the car since I got it together has commented on how clean and nice the install is. This includes the people I rented the dyno from. They see 1000hp cars all the time.

I think it is a pretty good indication that IPS cares about what they send out the door. I get a text every few days from them checking up on me.

I couldn't ask for more.
