LOL nice. Dude, get a clip of it once it's warmed up, and a few 5000+ revs would be nice.

so will this cam be able to idle in an auto car? I've noticed that most people who have this cam own manuals.

this cam requires a high stall converter for it to idle on an auto.

Sounds erm, 'intresting.' Definatly sounds diffrent to a usual cammed (220deg+) motor. Could be the wiiiiiiiiiiide LSA screwing with the sound.

Hornet, the power delievery you describe is a very well known side effect of punching out the LSA angle. Grinding the cam on a 112-110LSA and running less lift would be a far better proposition.

Walky, my 1004 idled similar to that when cold without the ISC - really struggled.
I'm guessing that the Stage 3 would be fine when warm.

I'll take the car for a drive today maybe in my lunch break and record the idle when its warm. It WAS struggling to idle as any i6 will when its stone cold with no ISC. I should have it connected, but it holds the revs too much.

I must say, thanks fellas!

You gave me an excuse to take my car for a spin durin my lunch break (the back tyres were spinning i know that much!!)

Here are a couple of clips of the beast at idle, when its warm. This is taken from under the front of the car near the headers, I think this gives you more of an idea of the idle. It doesn't hunt, its just lumpy!
