These are N/A runs, we're still making changes, nitrous runs coming soon but the car revs insanely fast now. Dyno runs in 4th gear. Car spins the tires with 315 Hoosier slicks in 3rd gear at 4000rpm!!!

So, feel free to call me an idiot if I'm an idiot, but I just want to make sure about something.
I used to have a Corvette, and a good expensive camshaft replacement was $500.
Now, I understand that was one cam, and this is 4.... but the price is $8,000???
Is that including installation, tuning, and maybe transportation to their facility? Just trying to wrap my head around it, because I love N/A power and definitely am interested in this sort of thing.
And this is not intended as a criticism, I'm just trying to find out exactly what that 8k is buying!

125 shot video, didn't ramp in 100% until 4000rpm.
Previous best was 622rwhp/600rwtq SAE on 160 shot! We gained 13rwhp and 70rwtq with the smaller shot!

Race gas for everything. I don't think there's any doubt NA we can hit 535-540rwhp up North or almost anywhere aside from FL.
It's not just peak gains power and torque are up everywhere and the drivability is awesome, throttle response is far more crisp than stock.

Holy god! ![EEK!](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Congrats to Keith and Andy (MHP). Amazing dedication by Keith and great R&D getting the cams working with the tune.
Jim (JRCART) seems to have his work cut out for him now with a NA 63. Cant wait to see the results.
Are you going to MIR for the next rental Keith?
New tune, Cam's, Air Ram Hood... 630+ WHP. 120 shot. 160 shot and some tweaks... I'm sure more goodies... could be 9's in your future Keith very soon.
Now can the tranny take it???
Looks like Andy is back on the map....
