stage 3 cams
The first time I heard my car start up with stage 2 cams I was in shock. Much louder at idle and when you sit in the car, well one of my friends likened it to a massage chair. With the stage 3 heads, I can rev up to 7k but whats actually limiting me is the fuel pressure, the diameter of the fuel lines is too small to get gas to the motor above 7k. I know your motor can spin to 9k but your gonna need some SERIOUS heads not to mention stage 3 cams to take advantage of that but with a stage 3 youll lose some drivability (probably not much though)

like with stage 3 cams... do you think the car will have trouble idling? thats my only concern with the setup... i just want to be able to idle
