SupraAyf Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 All, Can you give me an idea on just what the 'labour' costs would be to upgrade stock cams to 256's or 264's etc. Cheers everyone, Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steb9780 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 This has crossed my mind too, what sort of gains will they give on a BPU car?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 This has crossed my mind too, what sort of gains will they give on a BPU car?? Depends on which cam combination and what your set-up is mate;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glosphil Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I was quoted 400 to rework my head by someone and no extra to drop cams in at the same time. Doubt it would be much on top of the cam price tbh considering that. But I dont know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnd-mkiv Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 the cams will have to be shimmed this is where the cost comes in as far as I can see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getrag Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 It also depends on (regurgitated knowledge) what management your running. Improving the breathing at the higher rev ranges may be useless as the stock ECU doesnt know it is available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
