So that's what awesome sounds like!

Is this for manual transmission cars only? I have an automatic and I think I remember reading somewhere that there were problems developing a cam tune for automatics.

lol, i don't know if cams in a 5.0 even give you lope anymore since they have separate exhaust and intake cams. i read somewhere you could only get it with a tune on the new engines. not sure if that is correct though. the car had a tiny lope to it on normal idle when it was stock.

What happened at the end? Sounded like the car stopped camming.

i haven't had the car on a dyno yet, i am hoping the local dyno has room for me Saturday. It is much better drivabiltiy wise than the tune i had on before. the butt dyno is poorly calibrated, but it feels just as quick as the dyno tune i had. i still need to datalog for JLP too so he can tweak things.
