stock stall is around 1600-1800. If you're all stock including the stock peanut cam, I would go about 2000-2200 at most.

how will it feel as far as changes in normal driving conditions that I'm use to?? Will it idle differently? Will I notice a considerable difference in accleration?

:sillylol: sorry i needed that one. seriously it will not idle different. your car will feel a bit more "peppier" than before. it will allow the engine to rev up quicker and get it into it's power band quicker than stock.
