Default To cam or not to cam

Hey all,
Just wondering is there any point to having my g6et cammed? Has 492rwks on.e85.
Does not need more power. Just for the sound really. Lumpy idle.
Does anyone know prices vs usability.

Why not get ghost cams programmed in?

What is a ghost program. Sounds like it won't be good for the motor

They’re quite popular. Basically when you’re idling or crawling at low speed / low engine load the car sounds like it’s got high lift cams in it. Realistically doesn’t do any harm.

It can be added to many PCM tunes on the Falcons by a couple of the common tuning softwares.

Not the best video but shows how it can be turned on or off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omfRVRfnIJI
