Stage 2 Cams possible problem
I have stage 2 cams and i think the timing might be off but im not sure. Has anyone had problems with rough idle and shutting off while starting their cars cold? My car idles rough and shuts off until the temperature is about 1/4 of the way hot. Any ideas what it could be?

what are you using to tune? may need to invest in a honda IAC valve and use with an AEM EMS if you got one (the dezod kit comes with one). or adjust the idle in the ecu. may need to check your vvt-i settings? just possible ideas.

idle will be rough on aftermarket cams but it should be tuned not to die.. you should have a standalone though to tune it which i assume you have, as for vvti settings, im interested on how to play with it too!

Thanks for the link... However i dont understand this part "the three pins on the end of the cam were set too far from the mag pickup sensor". What are those 3 pins and what is a mag pickup sensor? Im running a AEM FIC piggyback so the vehicle has been tuned.

The pins and mag sensor work like the Crank angle sensor....it tells the ecu where cam is in its rotation.
So if its not reading correct....then you will run bad or not at all.

Any chance you can go into alittle more detail on the fix for this?
I have the BC NA cams but havent gotten them on the car yet. I'd like to make sure I'm good before I do so.
