TPS voltage on mine was .93 Id imagine yours would be same checked at wires at tps green and black I think.

As for rough idle, your computer will need to learn new cam so needs a good run

Do the diagnostics at home mate and post the codes here and I can translate them if you want. BTW, what model is your car?

Thats not a real radical cam...shouldn't really stop it from idling assuming everything else is OK.

How many Km's on the motor? I would start looking at your ignition system too for ony weak points i.e. coil, dissy cap, rotor button, leads, plugs.

These larger cams want more air at idle. You want to open the throttle blade more without increasing the TPS above 1.0v.
