Default crower 404 help

Hey guys i recently bought a head with crower dual valve springs and retainers and 404 cams for 50 bucks. i slapped it on when my head head gasket went i figured why not. Well i got it all in time except the the intake cam i had to advance it a tooth cause the t belt would not go on when it was on tdc. The car won't idle worth a dam and and its super rich i don't have the money for a dyno tune and was wondering is there a secret to get it to run right. ive searched many times and all the posts were from 02,03,04. setup is stock motor and on a p75 basemap from pherable.

Sell the cams to me and stick your stock cams in.

if you don't want to take out the cams, please take the car to a decent tuner. Tell him exactly what your budget it and that you appericate is skills but can't afford a full tune. Don't act like a douche and i'm sure tuners will work with you and at least get your car ideling correctly and maybe just do partial throttle tuning so it's driveble between 1-3,500rpm band. may cost $180-250... but well worth it.

go back when your ready for the full power tune. if you go back to same tuner chances are it shouldn't take very long maybe just extra hour.

dont forget to get a set of cam gears before you hit the dyno. Might as well do it right while on the rollers.
