Default 228/230 Quick Idle video.
Engine: 228/230 .571 .573 112 LSA, PRC 2.5 5.3's, Ported FAST 90/90, etc...
Exhaust: SLP longtubes, ORY, SLP Dual/Dual, E-cutout (OPEN)
Tune: RPM Claymont De. 430/400

Finally got an idle clip after a year. Car drives like stock and sounds timid with the cutout closed. Glad I didn't over cam the car!

Sounds great! I love the sound of my dad's 228/230 .588 .590 Comp grind. Very streetable and sounds very nasty w/ the cutout!

Makes around the same power too...a great all around setup!
