If you're fitting cams you limited on the engine as the valve clearances are tight as it is. 264deg type cams are the max you can run. | |

the m-tec short shift makes a hell of a difference really makes the shift about 50% shorter, bit of a bugger to get to......i got jamsport to fit it | |

150bhp is realistically a little high, but achievable with good cams etc, i got 140bhp (well 138bhp) i have a timed 0-60 of 7.14seconds which is good (but it has no interior) | |

in my signiture there is a company jamsport, they are based in northampton, great company IMO, built some fantastic cars. dta management is "proper" management, there are many different types, like emerald, omex etc..... i recently bought some omex but sold it due to lack of funds :( | |

the standard pullies will be fine, thats what i use, with a custom remap and few other goodies, but the standard exhaust pully has some lugs on it that are needed for the standrad management(cam sensor thingy) if you run dta style management you can get rid of the need for the sensor, hence fit a vernier on the exhaust pulley.... | |

yeah im thinkin of gettin a power box but havent decided yet then yeah cams and chip to rr it to get it all workin prop i have a x16xe and wot is this u cant fit vernier thats poo does it work on standard pullies or is it better to get vernier | |
broster |

i did, what engine d oyou have, not really worth it on the x16/x16/c16xe engines as you cant fit verniers to dial them in properly unless you run after market management. well you can run a vernier on the inlet but not the exhaust. | |
