My R8 dropped of at Walky......

[davegreg]

For Cam, headers and cats. Can't wait to pick it up later in the week.

[Tattooboy]

You never know, I might drop mine off there one day for CAM !!

What CAM have you gone for?

[davegreg]

Because my car is an auto they don't recommend their Wild cam - so they're installing the Performance Cam which should see an extra 40 or so bhp with much improved throttle response and a lopier idle. But the headers and sport cats will give it a beefier sound too, I already had their catback fitted to the car, set in the quieter mode so it'll have a nice deeper burble when it's done.

That little lot should make it a little more lively! Whats their charge for labour on fitting a cam?

[davegreg]

Their price for supplying and installing cam is £2.1k for the full job.

that should sound great when its done

[Demon Hill]

I look forward to your report with great interest as I was thinking of doing exactly the same as you are doing.

Ditto. What was the rational about their wilder cam and do you know the specs?

[davegreg]

Don't know the specs, all I know is that they do 2 different cams. The Wild cam apparently makes an auto car pretty unpleasant to live with as it wants to lurch forward all the time when doing stop-start driving in traffic. The other cam is called the Performance cam - and is the one i'm having installed.

I'd like a larger cam fitted.
Just before TR next year I think

I'd leave it, unless people start flying past you. Your cam and the map with it are doing a pretty good job.

And you can lose some compression with bigger cam don't do it

That's exactly what I am waiting for from WP before I make the decision on getting one fitted.

I might be in for a long wait !
