What engine is this on? If a 5.3 or smaller your vac is gonna be significantly lower then stock. I would guess your map kpa is in the 70 range at warm idle. That cam is 3 deg overlap. If this is in a daily driver with a otherwise fairly stock setup that’s a poor cam choice. What stall speed converter?
Boosted2007- for reference your cam is -6 overlap, so 9 deg overlap less. That’s significant.
All your map code threasholds will need adjusted.

How did you figure out the overlap #? I cant find any other info on this cam other than what i posted above

Glad to hear BTR is swapoing it for you, you will be much happier with what they send you.
As has been pointed out, if your cam has enough overlap your idle MAP kpa will be high enough that the computer thinks you have a air leak and it will throw a code, I forget the code but if memory serves me right it’s like P0068 or something. You have to adjust the threasholds in the tune.
