Default Anyone Else Have Tunning Issues With Tsp 231/237 Cam

I have ppls6 st2 heads and tsp 231/237 cam and having serious issues. I have had this setup tuned by a shop nearby and it put down nice numbers but the driveability stinks right know. I don't know if its the tuner or that this cam is just really hard to tune right. I have been to the tuner twice and it still isn't right and is costing me money. The car has idle issues when cold and when cruising it stumbles like crazy. At wot it seems to run fine but the cruising stumble is driving me nuts. I have checked all of the plug stuff and it's not that. Should i send my pcm to texas speed for a mail order tune considering they know this cam? Do you think they could solve these issues?

You should be able to get that cam tunned to be very livable.

If done properly, it should drive without any surging, stalling, and start properly (hot or cold). It may buck a bit under low-low loads, but that too can be fixed with a little time.

New to edit, but I tuned mine, no stumbles, or cold start issues. If you need some help, I might be able to help you out as well. My biggest problems was a code for MAP something or another, ended up having to adjust the min and max MAP up 10 each.

i do not have edit and do not plan on tuning myself. Just never got into it. But i think Jason at TSP can fix these issues. Anyone else have these issues? Thanks for your help guys.
