Yeah, it's due an oil and filter change when I get it home anyway,
What would you recommend about 200 miles?

picked the car up on saturday evening, cams are fitted and car runs fine, no issues with idling at all but paul at rst can't get any power with the map.
the car has lost a lot of torque low down and only gained a little bit of power top end. the car is now running 165bhp which is a 4bhp increase 
paul is phoning catcams on tuesday to see if we can get some answers, the car will be going back down eventually to be sorted, just need to find out what the next step is now

Yeah, it's not finished yet, it'll be worth it once there running properly.
Question for dom and Kyle - do you have any issues with the oil temperature with the cams in, as a little bit of hard driving the other day with mine in and it seemed to heat up more than usual, the dial went up to about 110. It has only ever went up to 100 before when being pushed, is this just a result of the higher redline and the powerband being higher up the range maybe
