I went with the SS2 with stock converter. Ended up doing a circle d to help driveability.

I knew a guy local to me, did 445rwhp on a load dyno with the SS1, exhaust, air intake, tuning and a 3200 stall. Had a lope but not as much my SS3.

GPI SS1 VVT

Was the stall necessary?
I know GPI states not needed but it seems SS1 may be all I need

I loved the cam and the sound was great. Ryan did all my tuning remotely. It was alot better to drive after i did the stall.

If you're going to cam it you might as well go with the SS2 or you'll wish you did! I put in a Circle D 3200 stall but know guys that are happy running stock. Talk to Josh or Ryan at GPI.

Not just peak 30 it's got good usable power gains. The California stuff now is does it look and sound stock so I don't get sent to star referee as well as the computer showing the sensors and accoutrements as ready instead of off like shitty tuners.

A lot is forgotten about the tuner here. The reason some of these cams drive well is the tuner. A better tuner gets a more radical cam driveable.
