What cam is it? Sounds to me like you probably are right about the PCM tweak. How much do you have to rev it up for the lights to not dim???

Intense Stage 1x..... if the idle is at 1000rpm then I need to rev to 1200rpm... if the idle is at 700rpm, then about 900 will do.... seems that whenever the lights dim, I need to add 200rpm or so.
