This is getting OT a little bit, But I agree with cougerspeed, and I don’t think some others are being logical. There are some things you MUST take in account for running a large “cam only” setup, for discussing street drive ability.

The tune is HUGE, a good tune can remove most of the issues that scare people away form what they can deal with, for living with a large cam everyday use.

In a m6 car talking about “area under the curve” as a negative isn’t logical. Like cougerspeed said, I’m also not trying to be a dick. But I don’t think you have ever drivin a Trex/hellion/MS4/G5X3 setup car. Yes it might feel a little doggy down low, if you lean on it at a low rpm is might surge or buck. But honestly by the time to drive the car out of the shop/garage, and 1/2mile down the road. You learn to drive it a little different and you don’t let it happen, and its fine. After 1 day of seat time you learn it fine. The first time you get caught off guard form a roll, by a “area under the curve” cam car, You go “thats sucks” and do it again form a gear lower. :wink: You have a shit ton of top end power, and say to yourself “whats area under the curve”?

Gears. 3.73s-4.10s make a huge improvement for living with a big cam. Over running your Trex/hellion/MS4/G5X3 with your 3.42s.

Don’t forget that in an auto with a decent stall converter, the slight cam surge is negated too.
