how loud and how strong? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Looking to get a tune, vararam intake, 1 7/8 long tubes w/ high flows to go into my pre-existing xpipe and 3" catback with two glass-pack style mufflers at the end. Has anyone had this setup, and can say how loud it will be? also wondering what kinda power they might have been laying to the ground.

Reasonably loud, about 415-420 rwhp

I have ls3 cai inc, 1 7/8" headers no cats xpipe, bullet mufflers (which I believe are glass pack style) I dynoed 400 hp 395 tq. Sounds amazing at WOT.

as long as i can crack 400rwhp ill be happy, but i'm not trying to sound like a nascar. maybe i can score a more toned axleback after the fact

question, if i get an sct sf3 or a diablo intune (some handheld that has built-in tunes with adjustable parameters), would i be able to do a basic tune for the headers and high flows until i can get the car to a shop for a dyno tune?

You'll be fine for a tune with basic bolt on mods. I had a diablosport with a custom the from JRE before I was cammed. I then decided to do a dyno tune. Cuz diablosport didn't have the idle tables necessary to the for the cam.

yeah, no cam, just a k&n, soon to be 1 7/8" w/ high flows, and a 3 inch cat back. so long as it doesnt blow my engine up and makes it run a little more balanced than the stock tune, i'd be happy
