Hi, i am thinking about getting my vtr cammed, just wondering what people think i should do, what profile should i go for? and should i just buy a set of kent cams, or send mine away to be re-profiled? ive got a spare vtr engine so i wont have to worry about not using my car while i send the cams away, just take them out the other engine.
What cams are most of you using?
cheers

i woudnt bother with re profile cams mate- id go for newmans or catcams
you dont need a set of cams only 1 as you got a vtr, (alot cheaper to buy) :)

thanks, what profile should i go for? i want to get the most performance possible out of them really, how bad would it be to drive in town and at slow speeds if i went for really aggresive ones?
