Thanks man, I really appreciate it. I tend to worry easy with the tune you know? Btw did you do the cams yourself or have a shop do it?

Oh trust me, every little thing that changes or makes a noise gets me all worried. Now I just say screw it, if it breaks it breaks lol.

Ahh the cams question lol. I get this ALL the time lol. I run a tune from BAMA called the bama cam. It allows manual vehicles, when idling to offset the cams to allow the intake and exhaust valves to overlap. The second it is revved or load is put on the motor, the cakes re align and act normal until you clutch it or go into neutral again. Must have your cats removed for this.

To hear how narley these sound go to my YouTube channel, stupidbuchanan9. Let me know what you think!

Oh my god that sounds so good! So bama just tunes your car to sound like that? What is the price different from a regular tune?

No price difference, you just ask for it and they will send you a file with it activated. Got you a video:


Sorry for the length, but if you have any other questions, feel free man.

Thanks slowbra I appreciate it. That's an interesting tune, it's safe for the internals to act that way?
