Interested.
Did you have them in your car? Why you selling them?
How many miles have they done?
Do they use standard springs and caps?

14/16 extra horses on 264 degree cams LMFAO. Try more like 7-9bhp tops, and 5-7bhp from 256degree cams.
U can still use them without an aftermarket inlett manifold as well, as long as you have some sort of chip to sort out the air/fuel etc.

Really, thats round about what a skyline gets from different profile cams
1.6 16v becomes 2.6 twin turbo

Daimo are you trying to doubt the fact that I gained about 15bhp from a set of 278degree cams? Whats so unrealistic about that?

The only difference between the SBD 164 and 184 kit is a set of cams (for the cams you also get valve springs, caps and pocketed pistons) but they are only to allow for the extra lift.
Thats 20bhp from cams on a 1.6 16v.

And new injectors, and they pocket the pistons to suit the cams. So not 20bhp from just cams not

The new injectors are fitted the same as the 164 kit. The pistons are pocketed as I said above but this makes no performance difference, is just needed to allow the cam lift. So it is the cams that make the power increase.
Patrick has had piston mods as well.

Whats the point in advertising something and then not getting back to the people that are interested?!

Sorry been away, never had a chance to check,
aye adam smoked grey Gsi.
I don't know if they do get that amount of bhp or not, i'm just going by what piper said.
They've done about 20/30miles, i have standard injection and so it won't idle. though never tried a chip, i can't be arsed getting one either. i want a scooby wrx!

I bought these cams. Fitted them to my 199bhp c16xe.
Made power up to 8,000 rpm with no obvious lack of power low down. Idled fine as well.
For spec check out pipers website.
