the lockwood dials are only a cover :lol: you still need the actual working dials for them to go over

even if you bought the lockwood dils you would still need to wire it up s it mesures the revs

i suppose it wont give any more top speed, though even without a cam, just a 4 branch, gas flowed and skimmed head my sri did 120 stripped out too. im sure with a cam she would have hit the limiter in 5th, giving about 130mph like my mates sri nova did, his nova was on standard ecu.

it will NOT increase the top speed really.... unless you raise the rev limit.

To get the :.18bhp you'd ideally need some mapping too

and yes it will increase top speed and rev-ability, after a good tune up of course

about 18 more bhp more with uprated exhaust manifold + decat, u say piper cams though?! there is only 1 cam in an 8v. 1 cam, 8 followers, 8 lifters and 8 shims, a good cam kit will include the whole lot!
