Yes if you have an SCT unit then we can create the Cam Idle Tune.

Is anyone else on here running the cam idle tune having issues with the car studdering and dying while trying to drive at slow speed?
For example, when backing up my driveway which is at a slight angle into my garage i cant just have my foot off the clutch in reverse and go for it. I have to more or less ride the clutch so i don't sideswipe the other car in there.
Well when going in and out with the clutch,putting load on and off the motor it keeps wanting to stall out. It will studder at like 300-400 rpm then stall.
The only way around it is if i hold the rpms at like 1500-2000 and feather the clutch. Pretty annoying.
Also i noticed if after a warm start you cant blip the throttle just a little bit cuz it will studder and stall out, seems like it needs to be reved up quite a bit to keep it from stalling.
So far not too impressed with the driveability, although it does sound really nice when its working and everything above idle is golden as well.
Edit: Next morning couldn't even pull out of the garage, car just keeps stalling. Cam idle tune has been removed.
Hopefully we can get this resolved

I’m not bashing Steeda, as I love the Steeda Regular tune. They have also answered all my emails and tried to answer all my questions in a timely manner. That said, I'm experiencing similar problems with the stalling on the cam idle tune. Today I drove 15 minutes home/to a gas station and I started it up and blip the throttle and it dies (low idle speeds 400-500 like this poster). The car was warm from the drive (and the 100 degree temperature here in Tx. ). I also have some rumbling in the drive train as well on the cam tune (not the regular tune). I hear this is normal though, and I assume it's from the shaking etc. It also feels a little less responsive on the initial punch (almost like slight lag). I'm probably going back to the regular tune as well because it runs like a beast.
I have experience in big cams in my C6 Vette. High 230s duration and it dies only once or twice a year. Just seems like this can be resolved.
Steeda CAI, triax shifter/bracket are my only mods.

Just curious when support for those w/ a JLT intake stopped? Since I was told today that you will NOT adjust my tune for my JLT intake that I am putting on my car next week. 
Also how does the tune play with the a/c on/off?
My Bama-Cam tune does all sorts of not so right stuff when the AC is on.
Also can I get a tune w/ more parameters unlocked? so for example I can bump the redline, remove top speed governor, play with idle speed, etc?
I ordered my tune on wednesday after I purchased my tunes from Bama and then they told me after the fact that I could not get a cam tune unless I changed out my mids.
That being said I recieved an automated e-mail that my order shipped on wed or thurs and I haven't seen any e-mails with a tune yet :-(

As I mentioned to you on the phone, we are only providing cam idles for the Steeda, Airaid, or stock airbox at this time.
