It's looking good. Once you get that done, you'll have to come out with us to the track and go out for a cruise.

94-95s are one of the most picky cars when it comes to a cam swap. I think your running an Ecam if I remeber correctly which is one of the worst to get to idle/not surge for a 94-95.
You'll def. need a tune, that will help some. Make sure TPS voltage is at .098, and fuel pressure is at 39 vaccum off.
If it is a Ecam the 110 lobe sep is what is making the car idle that way, but it sure makes it sound like a 9 sec car :)

Check the things I mentioned and def get a tune!
Hope this helps some.

Just put the E cam in my ride.....idles great....what mass air meter is it?

Ecam and a fox is a diff story...much more friendly computer when it comes to cam swaps.

Do you mean .98 or .098?

.98 my bad, the 94-95s cpu like to control the TPS voltage even after you set it...some say it is a waste but if you put a new TB etc on it def needs to be checked. If this is off it can help idle issues ALOT.

I went to a FOX TB and TPS on my car so I dont know if this will help but...
-Probe the Green Wire (i think the SN95 TPS has diff color wires)
-Ground
-Loosen screws on TPS and adjust TPS until you read .98 on the voltmeter.
*Sometimes you have to enlargen the screw holes on the TPS to acvhieve .98 as they wont allow enough adjustment.

-Also getting the set screw on the TB throttle blade just right helps with idle.

Do a search on the web, there are detailed instructions on doing this that likely are better than my attempt to explain..haha.

Does the car surge, or die at stoplights?

well right now its surging and dying when i come to a stop only sometimes. i checked the tps and the voltage reads a .98 so thats a good start we just replaced the iacv and that just made things worse.
