Well the cam is in and its surprisingly tame. Alot of people had me thinking a cam with this much overlap wouldn't be a good DD. I beg to differ even on the stock tune its no problem. The car searches for idle when you first start it up but after it finds idle that's it. No problems. I'm very pleased so far the only problem I have right now is I want to beat on it but I know I should wait until I get a tune. I'm trying to upload a idle clip right now if it works I will post it up as soon as its ready.

you really dont need 2 unless your running a big cam like a ms4, just keep it under 3000rpms until you get it tuned......a few of my friends drove there cars 40miles to the local tuner with no problems, but it wouldnt hurt if u had a trailer and just took it over there....and make sure to keep an eye on your oil pressure

Here's the video I hope it works. Sorry but I don't have a heat cycles on the springs yet so no revs.

Edit: GMmexican my oil pressure is like 60 lbs at idle. If you guys are planning on a oil pump the LPE sells a oil pump for $97 it works great so far.

Thanks man.
This is the one. http://www.lingenfelter.com/store/12571885.html
Yeah it would definately be awesome to have a cutout. If I get another exhaust setup I will have cut outs

no i'm not to worried about them. I have been lucky so far but we'll see what happens when a cop gets behind me at a light. I will eventually run my duals out the back so its not so obvious
