JDP Stage IV Cam results and review - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

1LE801 · 04-05-2014, 01:16 AM

I HAVE to start off by thanking everyone at JDP Motorsports. I went into this modification stuff very worried about a few things. First, I was worried about reliability. Second, I was worried about the budget. Last and most importantly, I can't stand some of the "car club" types (no offense). Some of the shops I've visited in the past have been run by arrogant, unhelpful people who seem more interested in hearing themselves talk than in helping their customers.

The crew at JDP completely put my mind at ease. So much so that I spent a ton of money and can't wait to spend more. Jordan truly enjoys talking and teaching about cars. It's what he is passionate about and it shows. He and Tyler both went out of their way to make me feel welcome whenever I would go in (and I did A LOT). Top notch people, top notch facility and results to boot

Now, the car. I picked it up at 6 tonight. Jordan ran me through some particulars and off I went. The sound of the car at idle is almost worth the costs associated, on its own. I have never owned a car that I've changed a cam on before. It almost feels like a completely different motor. The power comes on just above 2,300 rpm and never goes away. Having the 7000 red line helps a lot. I haven't driven too much yet but it only took a few minutes to figure out that this car is a MONSTER. I can't wait to take it through the canyons!

Sounds mean. I just picked up my Cammed car Wednesday and I love it. Sadly you will want more power. I made very very close to what you did and I'm already looking at heads and supercharger. Your car looks awesome btw

Beautiful car, even more beautiful sounds! Congrats, becareful and enjoy that beast!

You're right! I am already saving up for more goods. I think I'll start on suspension before I worry about anymore power. 1st gear is hard to keep planted now so I think power is good. Supercharger will come but not until im better planted.

Do you have a clip of your Cammed Camaro?

psst most naturally aspirated cams are not good for super chargers........

Nobody touches my car but JDP! They are a class organization. Jordan is the best tuner around IMO.

Sounds great!

I'm aware. It will be a while before I boost it so if needs be, I'll change the cam then.

Here is the before and after dyno sheet!!! The car made excellent power and the drivability is very good IMHO.
