    the tc78 has a 68mm exhaust wheel and the 7875 has a 75mm exhaust wheel.

    The bigger wheel will have less backpressure

    Which turbo did Martin spec the cam for?

    Whats the benefits of going with the t7875 vs the tc78? I could see if I had an engine built for boost, but my stock 5.3 will it make that big a difference?

    I think thats right

    Thats for a stock 5.3 w stock heads, 76mm, ls6 intake, 4L80e w 3400 stall
    I'm intrigued. +6 isn't what I expected

    Yep he mentioned that. Full power at a lower rpm as well. Think rpms are what killed my last two engines

    Martian knows what hes talking about for sure. I'm starting to like the smaller cams. More torque down low to help the car accelerate early in the run.

    I wanted the stage 2 cam because of the lump ( yeah I know never choose a cam for sound ) but he was able to still give me some sound and something to make some power

    It's all down hill from here. Once I had all my parts it only took a couple weeks. Which Tick cam did you go with?

    According to Tooley's posts on Tech/YB the springs were pretty much junk anyways. This reminds me that I should replace my springs next year.

    Mine have worked great so far. i have the PAC extremes tho not just the golds
