@@carlosb6269 it sounds like an American v8 from factory its just not that loud and choppy my buddy put a corsa extreme on his and it sounded much better the factory exaust is restricted asf
When will the Cam be available to the public? I heard they had some issues cracking the computer but it looks like you have it figured out sounds amazing best C8 I’ve heard
@@IKE-Auto damn… lol I noticed every other shop like Lmr is doing just exhaust headed and turbos I have nothing against that but your setup sounds 10 times better
Sounds Lumpy, did you upgrade the clutches in your DCT, if so what did you end up going with Raybestos or Dodsons. Good to get a video from you, keep up the insane builds
I am currently running the raybestos frictions/steels in the factory clutch count. They are doing ok in the 750-850 range but not perfect. I originally tried the Dodson stage 1 setup which is a +2/+2 but I could not get them told much power at all to be worth the cost. Others seem to be doing ok but have moved into other revisions of the Dodson setup. I have another clutch sitting at a different company but they have had it for many months and haven't really been giving me any updates 🤷♂️🤦♂️.
With the setup in this video...yes stock manifolds and cats are ideal but any aftermarket combination of header/cat will also work. Spool time was a bit slower with an aftermarket header though as they do not keep the heat in as well. The setup I am currently running though replaces the factory manifold and can be used with any combination of factory/aftermarket converter and catback.
The kit in this video (low mount, muffler replacement) is my own kit that I built only for my car. I am however currently running the CSP (Complete Street Performance) Twin Turbo kit that mounts in the engine bay. I am the shop manager/tuner at CSP and helped develop the kit. Call the shop directly and speak to Alex if you are interested in a setup for your car. 610-628-1563
Good luck the TT kit is about 13 grand and that's not even the half of what you have to do, not to mention upgrading the clutch packs because they can't hold much more than factory horsepower
While it did move under its own power with the cam I removed it while I worked on some issues to improve driveability (it sucked 🤣) Getting closer but it's not ready yet.
A dct isn't exactly an auto transmission either. But it will give the fastest shifts, hold the most boost between gears, and has the least drivetrain loss (even less parasitic drivetrain loss than manuals).
@@Bad_Daddy-88 it has no clutch pedal, it will downshift (and upshift) on its own, there is no dry clutch... it's a garbage automatic run by buggy firmware. Shift speed, this, that or the other - it doesn't matter. Garbage. Rip it all out and put a manual transmission with a clutch pedal and a dry clutch in.
While I will miss the c6, I look forward to more of the c8 build.
Unfortunately will be the last
If they drove cars in heaven. I’m sure this would be one of them
Until the devil killed the engines
It's actually perfect it has an exotic body and muscle car sound no car has it all like this.
This is how it should sound from the factory
Absolutely! It needs this lumpy American signature tone. Not that European exotic raspy sound.

😂😂😂 yes it should come twin turbo, big cams, and no cats 🙏. All for the same price it was before.
*California Enters Chat*
Wow I wouldn't want mine sounding like that
Holy f__k!! I am so happy to hear a cam in a C8!!! Get this done for sale to the public!!
👍💪🇺🇸🦅
I love those high lifting cams, it's music to my ears, like a symphony being played 😊
You did a great job with my ZLE, I sent you something to the shop. Thanks man.
Gonna want to put air in your back left tire haha. 😂 Jkjk. Love what you done to the corvette. Such a badass beast.
I hope this is what the C8 ZR1 will be
Do a cold start from the outside of the car
It sounds like a truck and I like it
Sounds so kool!
Looking good man!!
Badass. Let me know when you have a price together to do this. I need this
When will the Cam be available to the public? I heard they had some issues cracking the computer but it looks like you have it figured out sounds amazing best C8 I’ve heard
Not sure yet, still things to test and issues to sort out.
@@IKE-Auto hey bro I’m getting ready to order a C8 let me know if this cam is for sale yet
@@ethanlove5513 we still aren't able to tune for cam swap....maybe one day....
@@IKE-Auto damn… lol I noticed every other shop like Lmr is doing just exhaust headed and turbos I have nothing against that but your setup sounds 10 times better
@@IKE-Auto Vince at Trifecta has cracked the code for tuning.
Now that sounds like a Vette…😮
Dropped the hardest video and didn’t return
Lack of proper tuning access has limited the C8 platform.
It won't be much longer until the chop is back in the C8 though 👀
@@IKE-Auto holy shit 😭 thanks

I'm just waiting for someone to build one of these like a c7, with cams and a supercharger, like it should be
It's faster off the line than a C7 stock, so turbos are more beneficial to it for higher top speed
@@foxandroses sure, but imo supercharged v8s are cooler when they are this style of engine (big and crossplane)
Hey didn’t trifecta performance cracked the ECU or is it still in the works?
Cammed with a stock cam will work, but yeah any other cam won’t work until ECU Crack
We could probably get away with a small cam but it's not worth the labor. This drove but not great. Lol.
Where you guys able to figure out a solution to piggy backing with the stock computer with a larger cam
No, it is not possible with just a piggyback. Factory ECM tuning will be required.
Are we going to see any more GS videos? I’d love to see how that thing is doing!
I sold that car over a year ago so unfortunately not.
Nice
Sounds like a fucking monster
You can now tune it with HPtuners, you think we'll get an update soon??
Put a cam back in the car two days after the tuning was released 😂. Ive been driving the wheels off it since. 1205rwhp/1005rwtq on 23psi now.
Any updates? Or when do you think we will se something?
Nope, I'm sure the entire internet will know when full tuning support is available.
👏👏👏👌👌👌
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
With your setup, are you still using the stock manifolds / cats then route to your turbos?

When are you ready to call it done? Any updates on ECM programming issues?
Still working on it. Progress is being made though.
@@IKE-Auto love to build one once your ready. Sounds amazing. ECU still the problem?
@@johnlabunski4219 yep, the ECM is still a road block for now.
FAMILY
Any updates on the car
Still no tuning available to swap the cam.
The car is running and driving. I am waiting on a clutch upgrade to push it further this year.
Oh fuck put it back in 😂
Did you leave csp for Cali?!
No, I would never move to Cali. That is a vanity tag I bought to use while filming. I may have driven off with it a time or two though 🤣 whoops.
Well I know what I’m doing when im able to buy a c8
Good luck the TT kit is about 13 grand and that's not even the half of what you have to do, not to mention upgrading the clutch packs because they can't hold much more than factory horsepower
Bruhh imagine the c8 zo6. . . .
Let’s see movement
While it did move under its own power with the cam I removed it while I worked on some issues to improve driveability (it sucked 🤣) Getting closer but it's not ready yet.
So what could a guy expect to spend on a kit like this?
A twin turbo kit will run you 20-30k. A cam swap is not feasible to offer to the public just yet.
Too bad you didn’t rev it past 3k.
But can it pass SMOG ? =P
Potato potato potato. Mmm
So…….no driving video ? Basically just a 5 minute long video of it idling and a few baby revs???
Automatic transmission! So bad! Automatic transmission BAD! Rip that out and do a manual swap!
A dct isn't exactly an auto transmission either. But it will give the fastest shifts, hold the most boost between gears, and has the least drivetrain loss (even less parasitic drivetrain loss than manuals).

Good job. Get rapid results = Promo>SM !!!
