ONE.SIX SI

D16z6 with cai/h/e and 12 lbs flywheel. Just installed a Crower stage 2 and spring/retainers. The idle is very rough and it dies on me. I have a VAFC but will i need a cam gear? The lifters are loud as hell and i adjusted them too. Looking for some help.

idle will be rough.....does it make power when u get on it? and a cam gear will deff help

i thought a cam gear is only good w/ dyno tune i may be wrong as hell thought good luck with cam though

check your timing.. it's easy to forget about that-i almost did

ya check your timing

Yep, check the timing and make sure to adjust the valves if you haven't already done so. If the lobe specs are really aggressive, maybe you'll need to raise the idle speed if the timing turns out okay.

maybe the cam is bad....my friend demo had to send his skunk2's back for new ones....but there in now and it made a noticabable diff
