hi guys,
my cuzzins decided to build a vl turbo motor from scratch bottom end to top with all the right parts such as plenum, exhaust manifold,dump pipe etc etc, the bottom end will be getting built real strong with forge pistons, bigger internals, bigger injectors etc now the thing is he needs to no what cam shaft he may be decided to get that will suit the motor that he will be getting built. he wants to get some head work done to the motor with a nice lumpy cam nothing overboard just a nice note to it with that extra grunt like an idling v8 lmao. the turbo he will be running is a t04 garret turbo with the standerd vl turbo ecu (auto). im not sure weather he may have to switch to a different ecu or can keep the standerd ecu that might be fine to run what ever cam that will suit the motor, ecu, gearbox etc etc. he was looking at either a WADE cam or the JPC tx2 crow cam if anyone knows or has a rough idea that he can possibly go about it let me no.
cheerz guys
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
another cam thread lol
standard ecu wont run with that setup u explained , need a microtech , motec etc etc
search the threads mate this has been covered a hell of a lot lately
Whats the point of building a motor with forgies, plenum, bigger injectors, T04 and than buying a cam to suit a standard ECU ??
Just do it once and do it right the first time:: Aftermarket ECU, big cam, 20psi + tune... end of story

thats what his planning on doing but he wasnt to sure on the cam specs etc..., his getting everything built strong bottom end wise, bigger injectors etc etc and wants a nice tone to the motor but wasnt sure on the ecu weather he could still run the standerd vl turbo computer or diff comp all together. thought i would be worth to ask since he wasnt to sure....
ok well ill let him know and let him decide with his mechanic see what is recommended for his set up what his gonna do with it. hopefully it all should come good and pull some decent power. .

its fine to ask questions when in doubt but as stated there are threads on simmilar topics... there is a wealth of information available on the forum so just wade through the crap and he/you will find what your after.
