Default Cam - Idle / Stalling / Oil Pressure Question

I recently had a cam installed with a tune on my 98 WS6 A4, when shift from drive to rev or rev to drive I notice my idle goes down along with my oil pressure. Is this normal, it did stall out a couple times but I have only driven it two times since the install? Oil pressure and idle does go back up just never seen the oil pressure all over like that.

Oil pressure will be less at an idle. You shouldn't have stalling issues. Who did your tune?

I had a custom gruond cam installed simular to the g5x3. Good size cam, it it normal for idle and oil pressure to drop when shifting gears or slowing to a stop kind of fast?

hemietr, looks like you live in Jenison. I actually live in Alto near Cascade.
