Default Ghost Cam

Anyone know if it's possible to add a ghost cam in with a tune for our cars?

What's a ghost cam?

If you're talking about a small cam or cheater cam, it's not worth the money and effort.

A ghost cam is basically a tuned lopey idle.

IMO, if you want a aftermarket performance cam sound, get a performance cam and get a nice power increase to go with that sound; don't be a poser!

I'd try posting in the pcm-diagnostics-tuning section. I'm sure you'll get a better response there since it al about the tune.

Yes, pull 2 spark plug wires and boom you're done.

Saw a tutorial on how to do it using HP tuners on youtube. Just search youtube for it. Not sure if it works or not though.

Yeah, the mustang doesn't sound good at all.

Here is a camshaft induced (224/232) lumpy idle on an LS4... I like it, but is also comes with a nice increase in HP, and I like that more than the sound.
