Blackie Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Has anyone got these fitted? What difference would the make? Bhp or torque? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 more of both i would say, but you would need some form of ECU control to adjust the map and timings? so i dont think its just a case of banging cams in and seeing gains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I would not fit aftermarket cams myself unless i was aiming for over 500bhp, i can see you only getting losses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraDan24 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Any gains would be minimal at BPU level i would have thought. I wouldnt install new cams unless i was going single. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not fit aftermarket cams myself unless i was aiming for over 500bhp, i can see you only getting losses. im just going to stick with what bpu brings, I thought the cams might add 20 hp quite easily but i wasent 100% on what they would do.

SupraDan24 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 you'd maybe make 20hp ontop of BPU if you changed your cam pulleys as well to adjustable ones and a good re-map to fine tune the timing. Alot of money for 20hp though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) I fitted HKS In256/Ex264 cams when running stock J-spec turbos at BPU. It gave a noticeable increase in power when the second turbo came on line and would pull to the rev limit. I also had an eManage fitted and the car dynoed at 429fwhp. The cams on their own will only make a small difference, you really need a standalone or piggback ECU mapped to get the best out of the longer duration cams.
