Actually, the car sounds much milder than the video. The video was taken without the exhaust on. Makes me think about adding electronic cutouts when I wanna scare someone.

Eric, It definitely has s "lope" to it. Gonna do some street tuning tonite. The car runs way to rich. We'll see how this goes. The thing I did notice right off the bat, without any tunining is the car really loves the mid range. Can't wait till the engine is broken in.
BTW we're gonna initial tune on the Autronic SM4, then he's gonna switch it out to the "other" ECU which WILL control the vvt-i.

How is the Engine at idle ? Is it steady at 700 rpms or is it shaking a little ?

Engine is steady at idle. It does have that nice V8 sound with the cams. It's kinda cool when I come to a light and I get the doubletake from a driver who is surprised about the sound from the motor.
