Contrary to what you read in here, larger cams are streetable too. There are hundreds of guys dailY driving 23x grinds. Spend some time on LS1tech and you'll see what I'm talking about. It just takes a better tuner.

I know that bigger cams can be streetable but I just wanted something small. Nothing real big. I may go up eventually. But for now I'd be satisfied to have the power I'm supposed to have from this one. Like was stated previously, I really just want 400 Flywheel hp. I'd be happy (for now) with that.

Great. Now the car keeps cutting off when you put it in drive. It wasn't doing that. Only thing I did was change out the coolant temp sensor because I broke it the other day. This sucks. I will never never never never never ever get another damn mail order tune.

The issues could be completely unrelated to the tune.

I just learned my lesson when I went in for a dyno tune and found that my TB was only opening 85%, and my recently changed fuel filter was clogged causing bank 2 to go lean at WOT. No mail order tune can tell any of that unless there is some data logging.

There was datalogging. I couldn't look at them but I emailed them to him. He said everything looked alright. But something just isn't. I need a scanner.

I had the car retuned today. Initial hp was only 280 on mustang dyno. When he finished I was at 330! Much better I'd say.
