I always laugh when people say "its cammed" (never hear many people saying chipped too but I have heard it) yet its sat ticking over perfectly, so quiet and perfect it sounds standard.

Then they claim its 30 BHP more than standard with these "cams", de-cat and 40" back box, fucking mongs.

Think they may have misunderstood what the bore is too

Chipped and cammed means they had come ship shop chips in the car, then took pictures of their Lexus lights

When I replaced the 1.4 middle section on my XE van, with a Sportex I reckon it gave a few extra but not 10 bhp

But it was too loud for Castle Combe
