    Maybe this works...

    Sorta...you have to click the title to get taken to photobucket to view the video.

    Probably better to put it on YouTube, a heck of a lot easier to share with the world.

    I like this idle, gonna work on it a bit to clean it up. Gotta few friends working on a few ideas now.

    the Cam just flat flies!! with that idle, you can expect the lowend ( up to 2200 revs) is kinda soft. I have my rev limiter set at 8K and this thing powers so fast.. I have been on the limiter a few times!! LOL ( no drop in revs or power loss to give me a heads up!!)

    Just saying................................

    I personally think that Mini sounds like crap. A Mini should not sound like a big block Chevy or Ford.

    Also that Mini only dyos out at 145.39 whp and only 137.67 tq on pump gas. That's a LOT lower than a stock S.

    Only with about a 125 shot NOS does that car put out 263 whp with a tune.

    It's NOT UNTUNED and is NOT just running on ONLY pump gas. (NOS)

    Just saying..............


    the complete truth is not being told here.:ihih:


    I am less then 10 Whp behind you and without your NOS I would smoke that Mini all day and all night. And still be able to drive my car everyday.

    The 67 Mustang is cool but the Mini sounds horrible. They are like the odd couple.

    Those two should not sound alike at all.

    Interesting there dave O, and I bet you know you can keep your medical Insurance!! It is interesting the you wont be close enough to actually see my car... LOL Your opinion is truly respected and needed.

    Mr Jim , the OTHER one, you probably wet your pants... LOL you guys are quite the pair.. are you in the same town or something??

    They dont... the camshaft in the MINI is the largest I tested so far.. and it was cool to get that lopy idle on a 1.6, you two are just zooom, zoooom guys!! Like I believe one of you two actually said...." It is better to be thought STUPID, than ot open ones mouth and remove all doubt!!" Well I guess you two just proved that one right!!

    Just me..............................

    Thumper,

    Your reply makes as much sense as that silly CAM. :lol:
    and Medical Insurance???

    One would think that after testing so many CAMs you would at least pick one that would run right and not make the car sound like it has a major exhaust leak and is missing left and right.

    FYI ~ I will be in Ft Lauderdale all next week so come on down from South East Jacksonville and show me that awesome mini I would be more that happy to see you.

    I also wanted to thank you for being so upfront and honest about your car. :lol:
    You did not address my post at all. Please let everyone know your numbers are based of about a 125 Shot of NOS and you car is NOT untuned and actually really a weaker than Stock S.

    Just Saying ........

    the complete truth is not being told here.

    ??? Its all good.. you have shown your self for what you are.. this wasn't about MY car, it was the lopey camshaft.. You just like to toss around crap to be a big INTERNET Hero!! LOL totally cool here.

    As for coming down to Ft L, you will have your car yes?? There is nothing cute or spectacular on my car.( $3400.00 in total MODSThat anyone can do..... LOL). Just fast enough to blow your doors off in a short race. PM me your dates and I will see what I can do..

    As far as camshafts..LOL you dope!! If there is something better out there, then how do you know unless you test it?? Testing is the best way. No??
    Or is to buy something and stay there.. YOU Must be a Vanillia Ice cream man..LOL

    We all see that you are only in this because you are that type of guy.. OOOOHHhhh... your responce??
