Thats a perfect size for that cam. The smallest I would go with an MS4 is a 4000. Do you know the STR?

Similar question asked in another thread. I doubt the car will even stay running with that cam. If it were me, I would get a generic tune for now to supply more air and raise the idle up a couple hundred rpm's. The drive it to the shop for a dyno tune. Without tuning it, you risk fuel fouling out your plugs along with other more severe problems. I would absolutely baby it if you do.
