E cam has a light lope to it...definitely noticeable over stock but it definitely isn't too heavy of a cam..sounds mean enough for people to know you have something.

My ecam idled so poorly (and had such a lack of bottom end torque) that I ultimately took it out and had a custom made.

e cam idles fairly nice, not very lumpy at all, but it is a definate difference over stock, can tell easily that theres a cam
