HI Guys,

Me one more time.

The cams that have been suggested, Will they give the " LOPEY" Idle?

I would really like the lopey idle.

I'm about the opposite! I wouldn't mind a slightly throatier idle sound, but I can't stand that big cam sound. how much power can I get while keeping the idle sounding smooth and deep.

I hate the idea of passing on horsepower just because I don't like the idle sound, but I really like the idle tone of my Borlas, I just wish they were louder.
