Ok, I'll stop being mean...
Milltek made almost identical flywheel power to standard but recoreded a slightly lower wheel power figure.

Uwe, i think you might be thinking of CATCAMS, they do offer cam pairs for around that. I haven't seen anywhere any details or dyno results for anything other than race spec engines. You can also 'un pair' whats on the website and get 283/293 as apposed to the listed 293/293 for example

there's a guy on S14.net reporting good about them. I think he's from Netherlands

Piper or Kent?
I know they seem to give good results on the 'lesser' manufacturers, but on more demanding machinery like BMW/Honda engines...? Not so sure, or at least I don't have enough info about them.

Hi Uwe,
I'm looking forward to the results too. We've got a 'special' manifold going on just before the airbox and tuning so hopefully we can eek every little bit out of the standard valvetrain. Then it might be Shricks, if we can afford it!
All the tuning/dyno work will be done at Powerstation so hopefully a higher degree of consistency. I know Powerstation also sell the Motec/ITG kit, but they don't seem to mind doing the work. Guess advertising to potential customers in the SW is still quite good. |
There still th eoption of fitting other cams than Schricks. I can't remember the UK comapnies name, but was there not a pair for £450ish???

Looking forward to see the graph with MAXX and Carbonbox fitted. I hope you are going to the same Dyno? (and let's hope they will not knock it because it's a competitor product......)

Nick, I am not up to speed on the spec of the car, does it have cams ?? Mine does and there is a huge flat spot between 2500 and 3500, interestingly I have the road supersprint on mine with a Scrapiron rear box, but it makes very similar power. |
I used to have a huge flat spot in that area. Till it got re-mapped (after a re-map) Was approx 20hbp different......

That's what I thought, and to be honest the graph is much more important than the peak figures anyway. As you said, the slight hesitation/flat stop around 2000-3500 seems to have gone.
Milltek is going on Thursday morning.
