Awesome!
I especially like the description of the before/after. Seems like it will really help others looking to do similar mods. |

Nice build!
I live next door to you (never knew the parking went all the way to the roof). I will definitely have to watch-out for your car. -Todd...

Awesome build thread and a great 45th to go with it! I must say you picked the best camaro to start with, but I may be biased....

Thanks to Tony's (NineBall) tireless efforts of working with me in finding a perfect match for my needs we have finally come up with a selection for the tires and wheels.
19x9.5 Front - 19x11 Rear Wheels - Brand TBA 275/30-19 Front - 305/30-19 Rear - Bridgestone Potenza RE-11 The reason for the Bridgestone choice is because I wanted a tire with excellent grip, however I didn't want to change my tires out every 10k. Apparently the tire grips as well as the NT05, with less tread wear. Also - I have been accepted into the Spectre 341 Challenge, so I will be completing the following mods prior to the date of the event. In order: Pedders xA Street Coilovers Blu808 Custom Roll Cage Wheels & Tires Now to find that damn money tree.... I know I left it here somewhere... |

For sure. It was not even falling off at that point.
I would bring it down here and we will go to the dyno together. |

Regardless, here is a video of the dyno. I'll update it on the main post so you can hear them side by side. It is a real pity he didn't let it go to the redline as you can already hear a huge difference, but it sounds flat out demonic over 6k.

Nice build.. Mikes dyno is not the one to use if you want #'s to brag about, I would love to see some of these 480-500rwhp cam only cars get strapped down to it A friend of mine has a blown G8 and put down 486 on a dyno in San Jose (not sure where) and on Mikes made 448. It looks like he took your car to 6300ish the dark line at 5930rpms is just showing what it did at that particular rpm.
