Just to make sure I understand; you didn't have to change your tune any for the new cam?
I would think there would have to be a tune change because you VE's would be off, and in my truck atleast we got some of our power in the cam phasing and with this cam you would have to re-work the phaser on it

I changed the cam, springs, timing gear and cover.

The exhaust on these trucks are very unrestricted, hence the reason I've had a few pm's about my stock exhaust being for sale. I'd say 10 at most on a good day with the catback.

Put it this way, there is NO dyno sheet given on Magnaflows website for performance gains for the 6.2 option.

The first post is very informative, everything but the cat back and cam was already in place.

I have no results yet. Can't seem to keep my foot out of the gas for a long period of time.
