Default Finally have an idle video (custom AI cam)

Finally got a video some of you have asked for, microphone doesn't do well on the lower bass tones, but it gives you an idea of what the idle is like with the AI cam, car sounds much deeper in person.

Yep, the numbers in my sig are the numbers from the cam and the supporting mods. If you click the link you'll see that my opti was on its last leg and with my new opti i probably picked up a few more horses. I'd like to do a bit more tuning myself and see how much i can squeeze out of it myself, if i could hit 380 cam only i would be ecstatic. Unfortunately drag strip times wont really come any time soon unless i decide to change my suspension set up, car is set up for road racing and im keeping the 10 bolt so the car rarely goes to the strip, and the ironic thing is i have already broken a 10 bolt on the drag strip, as little as i go. I can honestly say i have no desire for more power with this car at this time, it's extremely streetable, idles fantastic imo, and make great usable power.

So basically, what I'm reading, is a few bolt ons and a cam with stock heads? Good numbers. With that gearing I assume M6?

I never had an issue with getting it to idle, is it starting and just not staying running, if so it could very well be your tune. And mine is very similar but a bit smaller, 224/234 .563/.577 on a 110 LSA, and yes, 4.10 rear end with a 6 speed
