ive got a write up but i cannot host it, i can email it to you once i get a chance, but pretty much you have to get the idle airflow all in line, the desired and actual idle airflow have to match at idle and your idle trims should be about 0, the closer you get to that the better the car will run

I've got a bigger cam that that and my car bucked and surged under 2k rpm until my VE was in line. Now I can cruise at 1500 no problem. You just need to go through all the steps for tuning a cam swap.
