Yes I did research many cams and this is what I wanted. I wanted one with a lope, easy on the valvetrain and motor, and be more fun to drive than stock. I don't go to the track. Maybe a street race once in awhile. It's my daily driver. I just need some help tuning and I'll be set. Thanks

Sounds like you got what you're looking for! I do love how the hotcam sounds. Do you have HPTuners or what are you using to tune with?

You don't have to drill your TB blade. There is a procedure to reset your TPS after adjusting the idle set screw(Torx). Do a search on TPS Reset.

Sadly I'm using the hand held Predator. I e mailed Diablo Sport and they sent me a tune for this cam. It was not good. I sent it back and they said they would work on it. Thanks for all the advice. I have not drilled the TB. But I think I will try that TPS trick. Thanks again.

Congratulation on your cam.
I'm sure you will be happy with it couse you got what you wanted, nice sounding idle, low lift-maintance free, flat torque curve, daily driveable cam.
(I was eyeballing the hotcam too for the same reasons, but it often gets over looked, mainly everybody looking for the highest peak numbers and ignoring the under the curve torque.)
Yup I deal with RWTD too they are having some troubles (moving) I've been waiting for my tune like 5 weeks by now while I drive the untuned ASA.

KEEP US UPDATED.
