Should have me new tune in new week, then on Nov 16th I'm getting it lived tune by Justin @ BlackBear!!
    Yeah, no real reason to try and get into it when the tune isn't set for the cam cause it will be a big let down... Wait till the new tune comes in...then romp on it every chance ya get! The .581 lift does make the power come in later, but once it comes in--damn--watch out! I have a slightly smaller cam (duration-wise) and it is ridiculous about 3k rpms. I tried to pass someone on a 2 lane road the other day...from a 35 mph punch, I got a 3-1 downkick and obliterated the rear tires--took me longer to pass them cause I was spinning than it would have if I just barely pushed down the gas! What size Crircle D 'verter yuou gunna get? 3000?

    Yea, I'm staying out of full throttle until the live tune!

    I want to see if they can stall it between 3200-3400. I had a tbtc, but sold it when I sold my z06 cam. Might just end up with a tt3600!
