	cams are pointless without a remap in my opinion. My old 1.4 ran like a bag shit without a remap.

	my next mod with that spec would be to buy a c16xe and rebuild it. fit the mods to that and get 125+ bhp. cams and a chip will set you back £700+ an old c16xe will cost £200ish and take your time to rebuild it. :thumbs:

	Was looking at your garage there and saw 1.6, thats what got me a bit :boggle: my bad!

	my car has no engine now.... but when i first got it, it was a 1.4 with a Lexmaul inlet, 4 branch manifold, decat and full system, it made 105bhp with a remap on top of that, it made 116bhp :)

	If he said he had that spec I'm guessing that includes engine fella:\|

	Any ideas on the power increase resulted with fitting cams?
Robin	posted on 16th Jul 06 at 22:49
	newman. to be honest though, most cams are gonna be pretty similar on a standard (ish) engine

	Dont forget the furry dices, definatlet 3-5bhp there :lol: on a serious note though it looks like i'll have to go for chip and cams next...What cams are better piper or kent?

	Oh right always taught the engine would drink a bit more juice with cams...

	cams wouldnt make a difference to the fuelling, so it would cost the same to run (or thereabouts)

	Ya was thinkin about a chip but are they really worth the money?Id say cams would rob me on petrol :(
Robin	posted on 16th Jul 06 at 22:00
