do folks just "want" without asking why ?

I want the idle characteristics of a "Cammed" Drag Racing Car these Have a terrible sounding Idle due to the fact the Cams are tuned for Full Throttle Pulls - they Sound Great at full tilt tho

I could only imagine how Bad they'd be to drive on the Road

You Could (DON'T DO IT ) just pull the PCV vacuum hose - it will dump a load of fuel to compensate for the vacuum leak - the result will be a similarly terrible sounding Idle - if you are Daft enough to try this at idle DON'T DRIVE the Car - seriously tho - Don't do it, I'm just highlighting the fact that the Unrefined/Somethings Wrong/Damaged Sounding Idle Characteristics of these Race Tuned Cars seems a strange thing to want in a Road Car
