They will more than likely run.

Just the idle will be pretty pants!

Better off getting it mapped though!

will run fine and idle can be made to be spot on. i ran mine without a remap for 6month and had no problems. didnt drive and worse than standard either.

as above, doesn't need to be mapped. As long as they are fitted properly it will idle smooth too.

it was hardly any different to standard steve, 0.3 seconds diff on 1/4 mile.

I take it you need it mapped to raise the rev limiter?

alter the fueling and ignition timing is the main reason for it.

Run and idle, if slightly rough but you can adjust the timing accordingly. Just might struggle on cold days remap should see better cold start, and you usually make around 5bhp more over a non mapped car.

nah mate, that 0.3 was just cams on standard map, 14.99 after mapped but it was seriously over fuelling because tank wasnt venting properly. sorted that now and its alot quicker but havent had it on the 1/4 mile for nearly 2 year now.

A mate with a VTS had his timing spot on without a map and 708's and it was very quick indeed.
