This is the closest thing to info I've found on what I'm looking for. Like this guy I've got adjustable cam gears on the stock cams (for now). They are set to -5,-5 like Vishnu sends and tunes for them. I've only got an Xflash not, the Exede.
Has anyone had any success with different settings on the stock cams? How did the tune deal with them?

hotrod2448, if you get the gears from Vishnu, AND the flash, which corresponds to the cam-gear settings, I wouldn't mess with the gear settings. my 272's and 280's were set at -2/-2, and 0/0. Call them and ask them this question, they should help you answer the question. You can change the settings, BUT you will need to re-flash for the new settings.

thats true just dont touch the settings also i havent called vishnu but i think its normal cause a friend of mine has an evo and its completly stock and when you look at the engine it has a slightly unusual movement you actually see the engine rocking but its very small i never noticed this when my car was new also my friend today hadent notice that before until today that i asked him to pop up his hood and he got a bit worried but i guess its normal when using 91 oct! but i will call vishnu on wed!!

My idle also became lumpy when I moved to the Vishnu adjustable cam gears, installed at Dyno4mance a year ago. That was with a ECU reflash and Shiv-tuned XEDE, and signature turboback rather than catback alone. I attributed it to the cam gears, but who knows. I've never seen it as an issue and it kind of amuses me. Bottom line, it's been wonderful and problem free.
