Default Another happy Vengeance Racing customer!

I can't say enough about how great this shop is.

The build...
WCCH Stage II ported heads, milled for 11.5:1, SS valves and bronze guides
Vengeance Racing Custom Cam
VR hardened pushrods, Comp Trunion kit for stock rockers
Katech C5R Timing Chain
APR Cam and Head bolts
Comp Hi Perf Lifters

Existing...
Ported Intake and Throttle Body
Kooks Long Tube Headers
Corsa Xpipe with cats
Corsa Extreme Exhaust
Halltech Cold Air Intake

Numbers before...
464rwhp/442tq
after...
565rwhp/497tq

A little lower than I was expecting but we will be doing a Fast and NW throttle body this summer to finish it up.

Thanks again to Ron and Kevin @ Vengeance Racing, top notch guys!!!

Here are some idle comparisons before and after.

Your before numbers seem really low the guy who posted numbers yesterday made that stock and you had full bolt ons.

After numbers seem pretty good 560whp is right around where a Heads/mild Cam Z should be on a normal reading dyno

It had a bad tune among other issues. All good now though.

For sure! It's a must if you plan on keeping these cars. I should rephrase, and actually drive your car. lol

thats why dyno numbers are worthless I've seen cars put down 540rwhp then trap 137-138 just a tuning tool track traps tell the real power.

Exactly, my car has always felt really strong. Never been to the strip though, I am signed up for a 1/2 mile event in Sept, so we shall see.
