SirKnightTG, you might hear the tools, but
it's only because i'm working on another
special project right now....... :-)
Ahhh... "Special Project".... hmmmm.... is this car related and are you going to hold us in suspense like Mark did with his FI?

Hey, I am just bustin on ya. I am sure it will turn out great regardless.

BTW, car is still running great. I think I may lower the idle a little...it is set at 875 currently but I may drop it about 50 RPMs to get a little more lope and see if it causes any problems.

Here is a video clip taken today after I lowered the idle RPM slightly from 875 to 825. Still no idle issues. The car runs great.

Yes, the clip is with the Brenspeed tune. So far I am happy with their tune and the idle issues are resolved.

Sorry for bringing this thread back from the dead, but curious how everyone's Hot Rod cams are doing in their FI applications.

Got a couple questions too if anyone knows..

Can these FRPP HR cams co-exist with a Vortech SC?

Can these cams come even close to passing emissions (I'm in CA)?

how's it goin tacobill, first off thanks for
all the write ups.

it's a good question about emissions... i
think the major factor is whether you have cats
or not and second, whether they do sniffer testing
or just OBDII.

maybe someone from cali who's got them and
is catless, can weigh in.....
