If I went all out to begin with I could have the best setup. I have done each stage, and wasted £1000s on boost gauges and dump valves alone lol

But I'm over the moon now, got a setup that works fantastically and for a change cost very little. Lots of people doubted the setup but now love it.

Well gents, sadly my cams that I ordered in January aren't going to be here in time for this weekend. Delays and more delays have mean't they just aren't ready.

Car will be going up to Bill's on saturday to have some mapping tweaks done, collecting the following weekend. I think he is putting on GBB, NLS, Tiv, Left foot braking, Flame show and a whole host of other coding. The car will then be going up at a seperate time when the cams arrive to have them installed and any nessecary mapping tweaks due.

This is somewhat dissapointing as I placed the order for these cams on January 10th and they still haven't arrived. Apparently held up in customs...

:(

That sucks james. You can try my na cams if you wanted? Would need them back at some point.
I will bring them up with me anyway.

Nls is the best feeling in the world, doesnt feel real :)

i've got a set of N/A ADR cams in my garage that i've been using as a paperweight, covered in surface rust on the lobes now though. boooo

Thank you for the offer, just think i'm going to have to wait for my catcams 3658's to arrive, although it would be interesting to see what gains the N/A cams make on a BT motor like mine. I was going to put in some equivilant IE CVA1's but decided against the rought lumpy idle. It's now a waiting game... typical.

Can't wait to get to drive the car tomorrow...legally

£60 is the going rate for people selling without knowing us 1.8t boys are using them as uprated parts. I would expect to see them fetch £100 once everyone is aware.

Well car is loaded up, went to fill it up with vpower (the good stuff).... £77 later it's full. Should be enough juice for tomorrow. Took it for a blast earlier... Scares the bejesus out of me every time how quick it is!!

Looking forward to tomorrow. Not looking forward to the train home! Boo
