Hey guys there is a tuner out there getting some new press.

Advanced Induction. Id never heard of them but apparently theyve been around a while. Over on CF there is a guy who got 417rwhp from a heads/cam package...and its streetable!!!

Check em out www.advancedinduction.com

If I sell the Callaway I plan on picking up an LT4 having this guy pump it up. :D
 
Producing power is not that hard. What is hard is producing clean power. Will it pass emission test in all 48 states at least?

You have any info on this?

:w
 
Don't know, just saw the thread on CF and z28 forums, thought Id pass it along.

But truthfully, Ive never seen numbers that high for a heads/cam job. ive seen 383s putting down less power.
 
I looked on the web site. No info if it will pass emissions or not.
That is allot of power out of a 350 though.
 
I would love to get 400rwhp out of my Vette.
After latest mods best dyno was 340rwhp.
What will get me to 400rwhp naturally aspirated!

Notice it doesn't say a word about drivability... I wonder how this thing idles?? The car makes so much power because the cam is so wild... i think a hotcam is 218/228 with 112 lsa... heck, even the ZZ409 cam isn't nearly as wild as that thing... keep in mind it also says nothing about durability... a cam like that will cause major valve train wear.
 
He doesn't say he is using the Hot Cam. Thje Hot Cam is pretty
mild in my opinion. In my car I only have a slight difference
in idle and the car has great driveability. Check out other
forums, many Lt4 Hot Cam installs have pulled the Hot Cam out
to go with a bigger cam for more bang for the buck. The Hot Cam
lift is .525/.525, which is still ok for the std springs/rockers
in a original LT4 engine. I am allready wishing I would of put in
a bigger cam.

I know he isn't using a hotcam... but the hotcam is not that mild for a close to stock engine.... Another thing to think about is valve train wear. I was comparing the stats on the website (230/238 112 lsa) to the hotcam, and ZZ409 cams. The cam on they use is definitely wild compared to other cams, and is the obvious reason for the high HP numbers. I know it will lead to problems, either top end or bottom end.

Surfnsun.... I scanned over the CF thread, but I didn't quite get the understanding of what is going on... I hardly go over there and it is difficult to understand things when you don't know who the users are. It seems like they are saying about what I am saying?
