Post by Dono82 »

This will be interesting to see. Interested in seeing the difference in power, before and after. One thing that'll be nice is you don't have to worry about setting the sidedraught again. One question though, did you already buy the Gotech and do you have a tuner that is good with Gotech? All I can say, is good luck bud. Sounds like a good recipe to me. What duration cam are you going to fit?

Well at the moment car is making 143whp with 207 nm

We really want to try and make close to 160whp

Yup my dad owner of Zakspeed Motorsport will be tuning my car. He knows the system very well.....

Must still buy the system.

The duration of the cam i dont know, its a import cam my dad bought few year ago.

Running a 298Shrick at the moment and the new cam makes my current one look sooooO small and stock
