What kinda exhaust setup are 3 valve guys running to hear that sexy lopey idle with hot rods? Mine doesnt really seem to lope much....cant tell if its the x pipe or straight through sve mufflers that are killing the lope...but all the you tube videos I've seen seems like everyone else's setup has more lope. My idle is around 750 read from the dummy gauge. Car runs freaking fantastic id just like to hear that lopey idle just a smidge more.

Cats are killing your lope. I had an Off road X and MBRP straight thru mufflers on mine, it loped hard.

Ditch the cats, or go muffler deletes if you have to keep the cats for emissions
