Hey Guys,
Just wondered if anyone knew of any workshops in Brisbane (e.g. Bob Romano) that would do a cam and chip package.
Websites for them would be great.
Also does anyone know who fits Chiptorque here in Brisbane?
Chiptorque can fit the cam and chip all in house. You'll have to go to the Gold Coast in Nerang however. Best part though if you get it dynoed is that Lachlan does the tuning there. Plus they use Surecam!
I've used a mild cam and a big cam with Chiptorque chips, quite happy!
Colin Lloyd of Headsense is in Coopers Plains, He's got a flow bench and an engine dyno and really knows what goes on in an engine. A bit pricey but you definately get what u pay for. Don't waste his time though!
Best yet he has a VL racecar (although he's ditching that) and has won back to back track champion at Willowbank and holds the National record for G/Gas.
I go to Carindale Car Care on Winstanley Street Carindale. Richard Hoareau is the guy to ask for. Its a regular mechanics workshop but if they can help you they will.
Ive found that the service there is always friendly but sometimes can be slow.
Yeah i'm talking more along the lines of cam, chip, and some head work like port and pollish.
And before anyone says it... i am NO i'm not turboing it. yet.
vlt06
can you give me some details re your mate.
also i heard that head sense dont do it unless its a dedicated race engine , no street use. lots of head shops are like that these days
Without a T3 hangin off the side Jay i can see 14's... i mean its already probably the fastest N/A on the site that i know of...
A cam and chip will peel some time off the 15.9 then hopefully head work. Shouldn't be tooo hard.

Dunno, it's probably one of the only vl n/a's that's ever been to a race track I think a manual might have a bit of a jump on that figure, maybe we need some testing to be done
Congrats on the purchase by the way
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
