as above, you'll need a tune for it to run properly or run at all in your case

quick update they found the problem the cam sensor was broken new one is in and now the tuning has started they think i might hit a 290-320rwkw on 98octain i'll be happy with 290rwkw ( and the noise was from the rockers because they are part of a all new valve traine)
