OMG 1k RPM Camden Idle?!

Oh yes, I got bored today, decided to hook up my FPR and tune it to where its supposed to be, it hasnt been hooked up all this time due to the no gauge policy.

So, yeah, adjusted it, and it's got a new 1k rpm idle, I did have it at 800 RPM, but you have to hair trigger the clutch or else itll bog down because of the added drag.

So for all the nay-sayers who say a Camden will never idle below 2k rpms, heres your proof.

P.S. This is doing it on old spark plugs, wires! I've got the SAFCII adding 5% fuel at idle just to decrease the amount of misses per minute...it's down to what my dads first gen does, a pop every so often - also the exhaust is straight piped, it sounds like crap I know, but I needed those little F'ers out of there fast, no emissions = clogged cats even worse.

I kind of miss the huge whine when I pull up to the light, but hey, this sounds better daily driven, sleepah (for the most part! :P )
The power seems to be less of a roller coaster ride as well now, used to it would have dead spots, now it just pulls strong, enough strong where i'm sliding all over the place when I hit it to second gear (similiar to Direct Freaks latest video)..

Will be opt. for a few minutes at least...

I love the new, more stable, power...
