Default VT/CMS Stage II Cams ....nice gains....
I just had VT/CMS stage II cams installed and saw 40rwhp and 14rwtq gains with a full bolt-on stock headed car. Same dyno , same tuner, 3 days between pulls. Looking for some track numbers soon

The car was tuned on a Superflow dyno so I have no Dynojet "bragging numbers" to show.

Right at $500 labor.....no charge for the new tune. With a head swap you can expect more though.

Very nice Jay.

BTW, VT cams respond very well with the juice.

Damm. Are you talking peak to peak or biggest gain? I only picked up around 20 WHP peak to peak and I lost about 8 or so FT/LBs, but I did gain a TON at 6000 RPM.

It's peak to peak.....more like 55rwhp at 6000 rpm. Are you running longtubes and high flow mufflers?
