CEL with 272 cams at idle only???
The misfire code on my Evo was always popping up during the first 6000 miles. Since then and after many, many mods it has dissapeared. To this day I can't pinpoint as to what exactly changed that. I can recall playing with the idle settings at the throttle body and changing my plugs to a set of BPR-7es, but don't quote me on that one. I also did add about 3-4 degrees of timing at idle . It's been about 10k miles later and still no misfire code.

I have 272s and currently using the utec to tune out the idle. I never saw a cel due to cams install. I drove with it more than 300 miles and still no cell. The idle is not bad, but annoying... I dont recommend straight 272s on a daily driver...stagger setup is much better.
