If you want a nice rough idle, just clip a few spark plug wires.
Side note, I'm not responsible for any damages done to you car

Sounds like you should get either the trex or g5x3 cam since you like the way they sound

Perhaps a hydraulic system like lowriders use can simulate the vibrating car, and just pump a sound clip through a new sound system that will simulate the sound. External speakers can be easily disguised as coasters, for instance.

I'm going with Arun's stage 3 "Jam Cam". It was designed for F/I applications...

The MTI X1 cam with overlap was an old NA favorite of mine.
VIDEO
I think they folded so if you are going NA and want a big cam I have always dug the TSP MS4
VIDEO
Or LG's X4!
VIDEO
Or you could copy and paste a video of what you like to Arun and he could make you up something custom

They aren't mutually exclusive in terms of cam profile... rather the opposite.

I think that is a subjective opinion of the person listening to the car, million opinions.
