This many people cannot be wrong. I have the same concerns but based on ALL the reading i have done, if I had the cash it would be done tomorrow. DOOO IT. :-)

231/236 is very streetable. Just takes a second to get use to it. It is fun as hell and has a awesome sound.

This is kind of what I am starting to believe. If the cam had issues I wouldn't be reading so many reviews about them. I am starting to lean towards the 229/236 since it is very similar but just a tad better tq curve from what I've seen. I cannot wait to finally get my appointment set!!

I haven't heard anyone have issues with any cam upgrade... They are all happy campers... Nothing special about this particular one...

I am just worried about the drivability problems...I keep hearing from tuners that a cam like this will have surging/bucking and is not recommended for a daily driven car since normal rpms are under 1800...I just dont know what to do, I need to order a cam ASAP!!

Jason,

Sorry Jason hasn't gotten back to you yet. He stays covered up between dyno tunes, running the head shop, and engine dyno. He doesn't get on the phone hardly any these days. I will try and wrestle him away for a few minutes to try and have him give you a shout. You're more than welcome to call me back. I can get you fixed up with anything you need.

Jon
