Default TR 224/227 is in !!

Well, it idles very well, almost too well. Seems to have given the car more power up top and quicker accleration. I didnt notice as much power as I thought I would, but I do realize that I have about 10 miles on the car after the install, plus I havent ordered my LT's yet and have no tuning.
I do have one problem with it now, not really cam related. When I had the cam done, I also had my camshaft position sensor replaced becuase it was throwing a code and my factory tach wasnt working. Well, now he replaced it and still no luck, throwing the same code as before, and still no tach, also very hard to start, have to catch it at just the right time. He said that he tested it and there is no juice to the sensor. What could be causing this? He thinks maybe my PCM is shot... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Well, I think it might a little, but not all that much. I think when I get headers and a true dual setup, it will sound pretty sweet. Thing is, it seems like it needs more air on idle, but the RPM is right where I want it, so I dont dare drill out the throttle body any. But, first I need to get this damn cam position sensor thing figured out so I can get to tuning the idle a little better.
