1LE to Vengeance Racing - Kaotik cam package

Just made an appt. for my Kaotik cam package install with Vengeance Racing.

Saw their ad on the forum and checked out all the YouTube vids (watched 150+ times according to my wife, lol)

Customer service has been excellent: David and Kevin picked up the phone right away and answered all my questions. This may not seem like a big deal, but speaking to someone right away and not waiting around on a callback (which the callback never happens) was awesome.

I can't wait to get this wrapped up!

You are gonna love a cammed camaro - it never gets old - even driving in busy traffic. Vengeance is well respected. Don't forget to post some vids afterwards. Consider getting an underdrive pulley while they have it broke down.

I have the Kaotik as well in my 1LE and it has been fantastic. Vengeance is top notch and I will be visiting them again in the future.

Did forget to get a Melling Oil Pump while they have it apart. The GM oil pump is really bad with the valve sticking and blowing motors.

I picked up my car from Vengeance today.

This entire experience has been awesome. All the guys at their shop are professional and you can tell they know what they're doing.

No shade tree mechanics here. They build some SERIOUS HORSEPOWER cars.

My humble cam, headers kit is nothing compared to the beasts pinned up in that garage.

Back to my humble car, simy put the cam package has turned this car into an entirely different machine.

The whole car shakes at idle. The power is amazing.

Gains in torque and horsepower from 2700 RPM up.

I cannot be happier with my decision to go with Vengeance.

Kudo's Ron and team!

Don't worry, vids coming shortly.

Here's a quick video. Made 470 hp and 424 lb ft torque to the wheels with "mildish" tune. That's a word now.

Whoaaa man that thing sounds killer! Congratulations. Better get used to allocating more time to fuel up!


How do you like driving so far? A beast or what?
