Hey guys, I am going to start doing few engine mods to the vts now I just wanna know is what good set up of throttle bodies is to have with cams aswell. I want a kit I was looking a gmc or jenveys on kam racing I'm just not sure and on the cams! Using it for road use... Buy still want good setup :) cheers.

get ph3 or 708's best cam on a standard bottom end, will be around 170bhp, if u wont more power u need ph4 or ph5 cam but then u need forged pistones soild tappets etc and will add few grand to the bill.
also will need standalone

AT Power bodies from GMC,
Bike bodies from Sandy Brown/Colin Satchell
These are the good ones at the moment, best bang-for-bucks.
Cams - on stock pistons you're stuck with 708/PH3 maximum. If you want to go PH4, drop in for high comp forgies, JP4 head/J4 springs etc, lightweight flywheel, manifold straight through exhaust you'll be over 170bhp
...obviously I can sort an ECU out and mapping for you! :)

More like 160 mark jp got 170 on high comps and 708s but standard pistons normally lower 160-165 figures are what id expect
Id go bike bodies and colin satchell bits omex 600 and newman ph3s tbh

Yer 170 a bit on that sort of spec would be more like 155 to 160 bhp.
My cams where set aggressive and have high comps and I have 140 at the wheels, but that was right on the upper side on the power.
Would say with 708 and bodies, aim for 160 and should be happy.

I am not saying anything to that.
But yer to the op question, with cams and bodies will be a healthy 155 160.

Seem about down mate, need to take it somewhere else first see what you get.
What duty is the injectors at? Was the injectors cleaned and checked to make sure they are flowing correctly aswell.

26th July 2011, 08:14
Well did Andy work it out to see what that equal to on the bhp? With that cc injectors and the duty.
Will give you a rough idea, what fpr?

standard 3.0fpr
andy said 63% possibly 65 at one point.
his calculation was 165-170
i am booked and paid for both my saxo vts to go for several rolls at COURTEN MILLER at the end of august
dyno dynamics machine.

dyno dynamics dyno alot of mappers I speak to don't like them dyno due to the way they are calibrated. But I know much about it. Just what I was told but many mappers.
Yer well maybe the rollers where not that good.
Soon see then, hope it what you want.

a cam belt and i'd do the water pump whilst you have the belt off, you wont have to remove the head to put them in. Ive got a set of piper 285's for sale if your interested same profile as ph3's and 708's

i got a set from newmans £185 delivered.
gmc sell them too.
theyre expensive but you will be sick if you fit new cams and they make the old lifters noisey!
