That fast road cam is probably no larier than standard seeing as they have one as standard. 180bhp without throttle bodies? bks.

Exactly, and my 8 valve with a Piper 270 and twin 40mm Dellortos with HUGE jets (only does 13mpg!) puts out 143bhp at the flywheel.

This chap should be done by the trade description act.

shame we cant post comments on the advert really to warn people.

ive got a rebuild Mi16 on twin 45 jenveys mapped by Dave Walker himself on Emerald and it makes 180bhp yet it seems this generic motorsport company could have saved me a lot of hassle, not to mention money!

MY Mi16 on twin 45 webers and lairy cam etc that runs very very over emission levels is 190 - 200 BHP. I doubt very much that 309 runs 180!! B*llocks.
