Have you thought about replacing the catcams with piper or kent cams?

Cheap mobile dyno at Santa pod probably fixed to keep customers happy, then going to rst as far as I know there dyno is one of the best about but will also give you some of the lowest results, that's why I'm more bothered about the way the car drives than just a few numbers.
Also I've been speaking to Paul @ rst and he suggests we wait to see how those meet profile cam comes on in kingdoms car before we do anything to mine, encased they need to be exchanged.
Also checked to make sure they weren't retarded too much after someone suggested and there actually advanced 6 degrees which is what catcams told them to do

#69: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: .liam., Location: sunderlandPosted: Tue May 10, 2011 1:56 pm ---- standard air box should be good with that in. do you think the oil cooler will be an easy 1 to fit?
#70: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Tue May 10, 2011 2:32 pm ---- i'v not really looked at where i'm going to mount it yet but it seems fairly simple, oil filter comes off, sandwich plate on, 2 hoses from plate too cooler and filter screws onto the sandwich plate.
what could go wrong??
#71: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Jamie, Location: Ring y0Posted: Tue May 10, 2011 2:32 pm ---- How much were the hoses for the cooler out of interest?
#72: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Tue May 10, 2011 2:34 pm ---- i paid £150 for the full kit including postage, the braided hoses were extra but i was told they aren't as reliable
#73: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: gti180boy, Location: StaffordPosted: Wed May 11, 2011 2:15 pm ---- Chris it looks like that you will be needing to remove the inlet cat cam to get the cam machined and fit this new part / seal cat has come up with ( if it works )
Is rs tuning going to strip down your engine for you again?? for free and do this if the seal works on doms??? if not then if you wont to you could leave the car with me and i will remove the cam and get this done for you??
Let me know
Kyle
#74: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Thu May 12, 2011 1:23 pm ---- i doubt they would do it for free as it's not there problem that the parts are faulty and there's no problems with the work they done,
could you maybe pm me your phone number kyle so i could sort some stuff out?
#75: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: gti180boy, Location: StaffordPosted: Fri May 13, 2011 12:01 pm ---- i have pm you
