Try starting a new thread in the Tech section for your year car. Someone there will point you in the right direction. This sub forum is for troubles with this site. Good luck

Need a list of mods for the car.

It's a strange problem to have with the car after a cam install.

I am assuming you had the car tuned correct? If so I would let them know of the issue.
