I've been looking for someone with cam's installed.
Did you run that with the stock ecu?
How is the idle with 272 cam's?
did you dyno it????
No, never dyno'd it as they didn't have a dyno in Guam where I installed the cams, and never got to it in Texas.
It's stock ECU.
The ECU is "smart" in that it will eventually learn the A/F mixture. At first, however, it has a slight difficulty running after you turn it over. The only problem is keeping it running when you turn it over or come to a stop.
Say you turn the key on a hot engine. Okay, the engine turns over and runs. But, when the RPM's drop (on a hot engine, it immediately drops to idle), it may drop too far and cause the car to turn off because of low vacuum or whatever.
But, this is only a temporary problem. If you know how to play with the throttle --- just with your feet to keep it from turning off, then you can deal with it, whether it's when you're turning it over or coming to a stop. Trust me, you learn how to play with the throttle and/or clutch to prevent this. It's a learned technique. Actually, pretty cool as well.
Like I said, after so many driving cycles, the ECU adapts and you no longer have that problem. It has to learn the cams + A/F first.
So, when all is said and done, there is no problem.
You can definitely hear the lopiness with the 272s. The car has a lot more power on the high end and more power on the middle powerband. The exhaust note screams on the higher end as well. Pretty sweet mod. I bought them for $1000 though, so...yeah. Like I said, I have no idea where Rick is or if he sells them anymore. If you know someone in Korea, they can probably get them.
Sorry about not having a dyno. Just didn't feel it was worth the money at the time since I no longer planned on turbo'ing it.
