I can't see the 130 spec Zetec cams being much if any good in a turbo application. It will largely depend on the tuner that sets it up for you. A decent setup and a rolling road power run and I should think you will see from about 230bhp upwards. So much though depends on the setup and the map the car has.

what cams would u recommend for this engine???

i forgot to mention it will also have a stage 2 superchip

[Oranoco]

A Superchip will be no use at all on this engine you will have to have a chip custom written for the car.

As for cams the man you need to speak to is Ian Howell at Area Six. The guy know's his stuff and is a bloody nice bloke to boot

standard 130ps cams are supposed to suit turbo application very well, ive heard of people even using the 105ps exhaust cam to help the turbo spool

ive just bought a pectel management system to run this lot on. does anyone know where i can get sumone to map it??? ive never even thought about mapping let alone trying it.

[Oranoco]

Depends on where you are but Stu and Kenny at Motorsport Developments are awesome. They are based in Blackpool.

Ive just been talking about them last nite, apparently they are awesome. I might be popping round soon to see what i should do with my fez. Just got to sort the little bits of rust out first.
