well stock cams can support 500rwkw+ so not sure why anyone would bother? not trying to be funny but genuinely interested to know.

Totally agree

In our cars just go for more boost

Cams may give power but you lose drivability

You wouldn't even consider having cammed car as a daily

Good work ;) should flow about 75lb but be similar spool to a 3540 from what ive been reading.

By the way, car is back together. Got a new TB on her, all new gaskets and liquid gasket on top for good measure. Started it up and she sounds like new! no more ticks, hisses or anything, and when I blip the throttle it doesnt wana stall when coming back to idle! What topped my night though, after driopping coolant in my eye and a spanner on my face, my mate had his head over the engine bay when I first started it to check for leaks. There must have been residual aerosol in the TB from when I cleaned it before putting it on, because it had a massive backfire whe I first hit the throttle. Ive neever seen someone move so quickly and go so white in their life hahahaha, it was gold

haven't been on this thread in a while. Little update, car has done quite a few k's since the last post. Been overall decent. still getting a little scrubbing but I haven't touched the guards since. Lost two of my spikes :shakefist: will have that sorted out very soon. Went to a small cruise down here with a few of the guys, was a decent little turn out. Talked sh*t as usual and has given me a couple ideas. Car will be coming off the road tonight for a full service, battery relocation, more than likely new O2 sensor, porting the flapper and sticking the dump on and a couple other things.

hen to get Pep to have a look at it again, see if we can work out the warm start issue. other than that car feels ugh better than it did when I got it! Cant wait for upwards of 15psi though ;)

Seperateled the lens and reflectors, modified the reflectors, secured the projectors in there and waiting to get some ballasts and I'll stick em in ;)

Want me to do yours? Fg would look mint with cffl projectors

I really think I need to paint that outside reflector black though
