CarbConn tunes me to 470 rwhp!

I scheduled an appointment with Andy at http://www.carbconn.com to have my car tuned on friday. I showed up and they rolled me right on in. Our first dyno pull was 447 rwhp SAE, with a partial get-to-the-tuner tune that I put on the car. Optimistic for 460 rwhp, I left the car in Andy's capable hands and my wife and I went shopping.

Three hours later, we returned and the car was finished! 470 RWHP sae, 485 actual hp on the dyno (sae was 0.97) I was extremely impressed not with Andy @ CarbConn's tuning abilities, but with the Texas-Speed parts on the car. This cam drives extremely well, with borderline stock characteristics. Probably a combination of the excellent tune on the car, and the good design of the cam. I don't want to be a huge nutswinger of TSP's cams, but at first I didn't think this cam would produce the results I was after, and that'd I'd need something larger... however it appears with an UD Pulley, a ported intake/TB I could easily be looking at 485-490rwhp and well over 510 with heads... seems like a great cam for N/A... and just look at the torque curve! We only dynod to 6500, but I'm going to extend redline to 6900-7 to get the most out of the car. Anyway, proof is in the pudding. Some idle clips below, a dyno clip, and some random pictures

Huge Thanks to Andy @ CarbConn, and Texas-Speed for putting together an affordable Cam/Intake/Exhaust package
