Default Outcome Predictions needed (HR Cams)

Wassup My350Z Members, my 08 Z is going in for Cams and dual valve springs and Titanium retainers from GTM. The Camshafts are Greddy Easy cams. What kind of numbers would you all think I'm gonna be throwing down on the dyno? All this work is going to be done in 2 weeks.

Theses are the specs:

Brand : Trust GReddy
Product : Camshaft set
Model : Easy
Type : Solid
Part Num. : 13526207 Intake:264deg/11.0mm/122deg Exhaust:267deg/11.0mm/124deg (Z33)

My last re-tune was about 4 months back I have Injen dual CAIs, Stillen Headers, Berk TPs, AAM 3" single exhaust and I haven't tuned it with this single exhaust. I had it tuned with Osiris with my Amuse R1 exhaust and with Stillen HFCs, Car put down 289.6 whp and 246.3 wtq, But honestly with this new AAM 3" single the car feel very torquey.

Here is my last retune Vid (hope it works)

And use what? Stock Air Boxes? Only reason Id leave them on is because since these Camshafts are bigger than my stock ones I believe my engine will ask for more air.

Ooh, an HR w/ cams. Stock boxes work best with the MAF and it's ability to gauge laminar airflow. I believe that's what makes them work best. To the best of my understanding, that is the story with the DEs.

I'm going to guess a peak a little bit more to the right and a peak gain of 10whp that holds til 8k or farther. Rev that bad boy out.

It will ask for more air, but the stock airbox will probably not be a restriction.

I'll throw out +12 in the mid and +8 on top (untuned) - If retuned, maybe +12-15 across the board. I know that car is picky as to which CAI it actually likes but for back to back comparision I'd leave it alone. Do you plan to re-tune? Those cams and the HR bottom end should be fine at 8K (but can't say for sure).

That HR powerband is similar to the revup lower collector, but a little more robust in power in the 5500-6300rpm area. Interesting

Well my Z is being worked on and will be out on Thursday but will pick up the car till next Saturday. The only difference is that they will be dyno tuning it on a mustang Dyno. What are your thoughts My350Z Members?

Just make sure to get before and after dyno numbers on that specific dyno. There's no use in the final power output if you don't know your GAINS in performance

I hope I get more, But that is my thought exactly. I also went ahead and asked them to install the GTM high performance Valves (stock size) and to bolt everything back down with ARP Head studs and bolts.

Id guess more then that. Anyway interested to see how this does. I was under the assumption those cams were made in mind with their TT kit.

Very possible, the amount of overlap in them is very conservative. As well, the high lift/medium aggressive duration would suggest a rather turbo friendly cam.
