What size is the cam?


Either way you should be fine, just dont flog the hell out of it. I drove mine around for a week, then 30 miles to my tuners house.

I think its fine as long as you don't run it hard. No WOT and don't take the RPM to high

I drove an untuned TRex for almost a month. You'll be fine.

i'm still on the stock tune since i put the cam in spring break (end of March). i used my predator to dial in the WOT AFR. It goes dead every once in a while but i saved a bunch of money for now.

Torquer 2 TUNE ON tREX, no issues really, except lean idle, but not enough to kill it. been driving it for a good month or so
