haha well it does stall but it was idling before fine. my intake did do that normal spit noise. i think i got a vaccum leak, when my car started spitting, the data log shows that my manifold pressure went sky high so i am going to look around for the air. my dad told me he heard an air leak so prob got one

well stage 2 cams caused me to snap the bottom of the vavle clean off the head along with destroying the spark plug (cylinder 4) and i think i may have bent two valves, one I, one E on 4..... ******* BEAT!

Yet another successful Ecotec...

I won't lie, if I was at a red light and heard that 2.2, I would have the biggest WTF look on my face. Sounds good man.

Thanks Wes. If it wasnt for you and Al coming out it still would run like a turd on wheels. It sounds mean in my books. Dude you guys gotta come down more often and chill. I bascially got all my money for my valvetrain so we might be seeing my car again on jacks, and Nick's car probably in like 2 weeks

Yeah man we had lots of fun. Sucks we only got one of two running but no worries won't be much longer on the other hopefully.

Post up a vid. I'm sure there are some people that would love to hear what a stage 2 cammed L61 sounds like.

actually it was pretty good for a lil but here and there it had problems and stalled and rough idle, then we tried to use the raised idle tune and it was running like the -4 to 20 to -4 (like you were explaining)

Yeah the motor shacks a little but thats normal with the stage 2 cams most likely. Im ordering tranny mounts monday from turbo tech racing or the ones modern performance has. idk which would be better and last.
