Perhaps...Mine doctored @ 111.1.

Can't say I'd round that up to 113, but YMMV.

Okay guys well I tried it anyways and went with my gut feeling and it was a success. The car sounds loud as hell with open headers. No pistons kissing valves or anything. Works out good. ONLY thing is I cant keep the car on because it keeps going off. With a cam this big its a no brainer. I tried raising the screw in the throttle body but no success. Any suggestions??? Thanks in advance. Antonio.

Please tell me this is not a stock tune in the ECU.

When we put my x4 in it took a couple minutes of cranking to get it fired up. It took a while for it to idle on its own. I gave it gas for 5min or so then it was ok. That was on a bolt on tune.

Okay well everything is working properly for the most part. I already spun a bearing or toasted a compression ring . Didn't last me a 2 days. Hope I dont have to wait another year to fix it. Thanks to everybody who posted. Antonio.
