ive made 243rwkw on 14 psi with a smallish lumpy none turbo cam.
i dont plan on running any more boost any time soon.
- would i be looking at a worth while gain if i changed to a lumpy turbo cam.
- would it bring my et's down ( 12.8 @ 114mph)
- would it be better for the motor
Cherrs Ricko.

DUDE he has mentioned it, stock ECU, stock Injectors, 6 extra injectors running methanol, how farkin hard is it to understand?
I've seen this car on the rollers and on the street, I'm running his old hi-flow which made around 250rwkw before the new turbo, he is no **** talker.

LMAO. knew this wouldhappen if scoot got on here.. and I remember chattin to him bout it one day..
just because someone says something a bit left field does not mean they are talkin crap.. it means that u dont need an aftermarket computer to make big power.. didnt Cgmfly's bro make some pretty impressive power running a standard computer and some extra injectors aswell?
Also.. because he ran 120mph does not mean a happy dyno or incorrect figure, it means he was running some tyres that werent obviously hooking up.. its always the way some bloke runs a bit down on mph.. people say a few sly remarks.. the following run they are up where they should be and everyone assumes more boost or more power, could just be they are using some slicks this time lol.

update - Ive taken my head to be recoed n shit, then puttn the big cam in.. at this stage im not sure if i want to stay highcomp, since ive taken off the head i might use one of those thicker gaskets.. it will all still be on a stock n/a bottom end but compression will be lowered lol..

Highly recommend the .073" gasket, its not too low, still in the mid 8's compression, and good insurance.
