I don't think changing exhaust would be the answer

can this be it

That cam has a LOT of exhaust duration, it may have been purpose-designed for a more restrictive exhaust.

you should really ask patrick. when he spec'd you the cam did you tell him you were goin to run dual exhausts?

something is definately wrong because i ran mid 11's with a 5.3 and 150 shot.

I know this sucks but it's kinda interesting. I would suggest, since it's easier to swap the exhaust back to do that and go back to the track. If it does better or worse it will tell you if it was your cam or not.

Some people think 3" duals is too big and not enough restriction. However...I have a 3" x-pipe and open headers out both sides of my truck and it only made 4 rwhp more than when I closed the cut-outs and went into a 2-1 muffler a resonator and out a single 3" tip.

okay so let me get this strait. gt2 can with the radix and that converter you have went faster?.... and now with the larger cam it goes slower.

is the converter "loose" or tight? that converter may be hurting you.


i would ditch the PI and get something that has a higher str.

and drop that crazy 4k to maybe a 3600.
