Saunders82 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 just needs some opinions are they worth the money on a n/a car or and im better to be patient and save for bigger and better things ie somesort of forced inductionat the moment my car only has breathing mods it is fast but wouldnt mind it being abit more fast mainly because i got taken out in a mental 280 bhp bam engined ibiza last weekend!

Charged VR 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 I would say save for a Charger as i dont think cams will transform your engine as much as you are hoping. Did not Cam mine and have no intention of doing so. I think by the time they have been bought, Fitted and remapped its not wothe the extra 20 max bhp! Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Depends what cams you go for.Take one bone stock Corrado Storm, OBD1. Drive into Stealth with 192hp and 186lb/ft torque. Add a pinch of Schimmel 263 cams, stir in some igntion and fuel, turn up the heat and come out with 221hp and 204lb/ft torque.That's a gain of 29hp and 18lb/ft.There is no other VR6 mod that I'm aware of that nets those gains for £187.90p (+ fitting and mapping).

Phat VR6 3 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Id say both too.. start with FI friendy cams and then add FI later on..I think the 263s mentioned by kev are good on FI and NA Link to post Share on other sites
