I know a couple guys running it in their daily drivers around here... IMO, it is streetable, but you'll need a good tune.

They don't recommend it of course because it is so violent on the drivetrain. I have a 02 Z28 that is H/C with the Trex and a PT4400 stall. I daily drive the car. Its a matter of what you really want out of the car though. I don't mind it at all. Most people will tell you my setup is not streetable but I drive mine everyday....Just my .02...

Yeah, I have not ever had that problem.. I have a couple of friends that run the cam in daily drivers and they don't complain at all. The only thing I have seen in automatic cars is you have to have a good tune to run the ac at the stoplights....
