Default Ordered The Maggie.. Question on Cam

I went ahead and ordered the I/C Maggie kit today. Couldn't believe how much low end grunt my friend's C5 had with it. It just blew me away.

Question is about my sleeper cam i have. It's a 212/228 .550/.550 118LSA. Is that cam a good mix for the Magnacharger?

If you like the sleeper idle that cam will be fine. You can make a little more power with a bigger cam, but you will add lope to the idle. Personally, I'd keep it.
