What would you recommend about 200 miles?
#47: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Thu Apr 28, 2011 1:30 pm ---- Well the car wasn't ready today, cams are fitted and just needing mapped, I can't get to the garage tomoro so hoping to pick it up on Saturday
#48: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Sun May 01, 2011 2:30 am ---- 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

Are you set to much retard on cams when you doing timing for perfect idling?

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

#58: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Wed May 04, 2011 3:07 pm ---- well rst didn't manage to get in touch with them yesterday or today so i'll be phoning again tomorrow to see if there's any news, i bought the cams second hand although they'd never been used so i dont know how i'd get on with a recall?
#59: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: .liam., Location: sunderlandPosted: Thu May 05, 2011 1:02 pm ---- i hope it makes 180 when it all gets sorted! im desperate to see how it goes when there working properly. you think it would come down to a recall?
#60: Re: Chris's 206 gti 180 Author: Chris180, Location: northumberlandPosted: Thu May 05, 2011 2:25 pm ---- it's looking that way as i think they've found a fault with the inlet cam
