Sounds real nice.

I got that cam in my car. Its on the front seat at the moment, also got the patriot heads too, no room in the front so they are on the back seat.
Cant wait to get them installed. That cam sounds. Glad you posted the video, I'm looking forward to installing my bits if its going to sound like that.

I would be reluctant to try it. Your AFR could be way off. The cam is bringing in more air, although the fuel trims will compensate a bit, I dont know if they will compensate the whole lot. If you get on it and you are really lean you could do damage. You may need to do something with timing in the tune, I'm not sure.

I know its tempting to get on it, but if it was me I would rather get it checked and feel safe after all that work you done to change it.

I beat on mine without a tune for 6 months, then got it tuned but didn't notice much of a difference. The idle is a little better and it's not running as rich. I've got the same cam as you, it sounds good and pulls decent. I hope you get better results than me, good luck!
