The cam is made by futral motorsports, who is a sponsor here. www.futralmotorsports.com . They are known for making cams that idle extremely well, are very streetable, and make tons of power while maintaining lots of torque on the low end. I have the F11, which is a 228/230 .575/.595 112 LSA, here is a vid of my idle. Idle at 800, M6.

I can turn the A/C all the way up on a cold or hot start and it doesn't miss a beat. It does a little surging and stumbling from time to time but NEVER stalls and the idle is very constant.
I'd go at least mid 230's.

This is not the first cam in this car, the previous was a 212/236 that did around 406rwhp with some mildly worked heads. Keep in mind I have heads with this current setup as well, but people typically see numbers between 395-415 with the F11 and F13 cam only in M6.
Here is the graph from my dynotune, done on dynojet, 4.10 gears and very heavy wheels.

what do you guys think the power difference and driving characteristics are between the f13 and f14 cams. like power band rpm, hp, torque, idle rpm.
my .224 xer cam has a real lumpy idle how would these two cams compare?
