Crappy cell phone quality, but if you have good head phones u will hear the mild lope.

Mine sounded pretty lopey with my S2's. I loved it. Makes more power no, music to my ears yes lol. Here's a short clip of mine on photobucket.

My red one I had idle at 950, and yes it sounded stock most of the time. Once in a while you'd catch a little lope. The gray one idles pretty much like stock all the time except when cold, you can tell a little.
one thing with cams is it makes it easier to make power you don't have to run a super small pulley or a lot of timing to achieve the same results as a car with stock cams and a small pulley

Like I said, mine only lopes on cold starts but then again, Area47 might have tuned that out.

But then when you add the small pulley and the timing WITH the cams, the fun begins. If it can be faster on the same setup, why leave anything on the table? lol :P
The main gain I liked on mine was the gain in torque throughout the whole powerband. The peak gain would have been higher if I had the ***** to rev to 8k but its my DD so nope.
not on a DD with a stock block
At the track I said I don't care what happens. Launch, 1st to 8100, 2nd to 8100, then rode 3rd out lol, only about 5 times in a row. Then the limiter went back to 7600 after the track.
