That would be my guess as well. I would go up one more setting...its right on the verge of that beautiful cadence that makes me love the cam so much, it just needs alittle more rpm. Heres mine at 750...

Is there a way I can pull apart the engine a little to see for sure if I have cams?? I have it tuned for no cams and would probably benefit from a new tune if I am cammed.

That's what I would have thought but my car does 12 sec passes with radials! I feel like your blower with the cams is what made your car run like ****

yah i also had injector problem, ended removing cams and changing forged block to a stock block..for nothing...omfg bad memory

but your car definitly got cams, running in the 12s with your setup is quiet interresting, im running mid-high 12xx on my street tire, but that with blower etc, cant wait to try my new DR and try to hit 12 flat...

I like the stock idle the most. The 2nd option does sound like a misfire a bit! We set the idle right around 800RPM's. Give the Bama team a call and they can help you out!

Our Bama Performance tuning specialists are here in the building Monday-Friday from 9AM-5:30PM EST and Saturday 9AM-5:30PM EST. You can hit them up directly at 888.226.9764 and they'll get you squared away!
