You throwing some cams in while the heads are out?
Might as well do it now as it'll be easy to fit now rather than later

Na, turbo is too small, u can have a look at my second post of my thread to see the wheel size difference of the popular turbos. And too much expenses at this stage. Head will be send for pressure test, if there is sth wrong, then i will consider cams.

I have seen diversion's build quality, its good. Plus Mao is too busy to fit me in.

I will not comment on other local shops' build this time

Yeah it's going great, just got back from a month of debauchery in Europe so haven't had a chance to do anything with it as it's been garaged. It's due for a major service so have that booked in next week.

Honestly though, I am just enjoying it for the time being. Next time I have it down in Perth I am going to go and see some workshops to start looking into the direction I should take with it next, one area I would like improvement though is the tune.

It's 100% daily driven and will see no track work so not going to go silly with it...That is unless the current 257 lets go. Then a full build will take place.

Retune it on corn it has everything else done to it already.

Just remembered you live in Kal, no corn.

No need for cams unless you want to go over 500whp. Turbo will make much more difference.

Glad to see you progressing and looking forward to your corn dyno. Shame that the e85 bowsers are mostly NOR.

One of the most exciting things for me building a new house is to be in the western suburbs closer to Osborne Park...e85.
