Kent Cams PT50-E

[doggybs]

Why are these so cheap. Only £170 for a VTS??????

[ets2k9]

I asked this the otherday in regards to some cam on the Hiflowheads website and apparently its because there reprofiled.

[Ratty]

as said they are reground cams, basically you send them yours and they regrind them to that new profile

PT50-E
E - Exchange - reprofiling of customer's own cam,

[Ratty]

PT50s are too mild, id get PT51s or cat cams 708s

[ets2k9]

Is it a worthwhile mod or it best to save up and get something else?

*Question answered.

Can Your Cams Be Reground To Pt51 Profile?

[ets2k9]

I reckon we should get a Cat cams group buy together.

[doggybs]

Yes!! Would be mega into that :-)

[doggybs]

And group re-maps ;-)

[doggybs]

Would have to be quite quick though. My engine is in bits at the min, and gotta put it back together soon.

[doggybs]

I will do some asking around, to see how many we need to buy, and what discounts we can get.

Good man, I'm pretty sure SSC had a group buy on Cat cams so I cant see why they would be up for it again.

I cant see us gettting a group buy on the remap though as your paying for someones expertise/time that much harder to quantify or arrange.

If we get in touch with them they might do us a discount on a little performance package :)

I'm guessing all this has to be squared woth the big dogs becuase if anything goes wrong its not going to do anyone any favours.

[SteVTR]

aye a discount on the 150 or 160 bhp head kits on hiflow heads would be a good one

how much are they?

Found em now*

150bhp head kit (St3 Ported head/ Pair Fast Road 270 cams / Ported Throttle body / Competition head gasket / HFH Competition Cam Belt/ Head bolts / FSE Boost Valve) 807.33

160bhp head kit (St3 Ported head/ Pair 'billet' 285 Fast Road Cams / Ported Throttle body / Comp head gasket / Competition Cam Belt/ Head bolts / FSE Boost Valve) 962.33

[SteVTR]

£807 and £962 both not bad prices to start with but like tesco says every little helps :P

[ets2k9]

Bargain!

I cant see many people signing up to £800's worth of stuff at least with the cams your looking at the £200 mark which is alot easier to get your hands on.

I'll drop a few emails about the cams and see what they come back with, its always worth a try.

[ets2k9]

QEP _ Cat Cams/ (http://www.qep.uk.com/)

I'll drop them a mail to see what there prices are and if there interested in a group buy.

[Ratty]

no you can regrind to pt51, must be a blank cam, plus regrinds are crap :D

[mad_dog]

any more news on the group buy for the cams? i'd definately be up for that

[ets2k9]

I've mailed QEP but have had no reply as of yet.

[williamsvts]

btw, just by fitting them parts in the kits from hiflow heads wont give you 160hp. to achieve that you would need te car mapped.

[Saxoladlesta]

I would be 100% up for it,Im after some Kent Cams or whatever is better :)

[spencer_cammedvts]

would depend on what kinda discount they can give

[williamsvts]

tbh, you dont need all that stuff to get 160bhp.
comp cam belt?? why?
fse boost valve??? why??

a lot of cars with usuall breathing mods + 708s + remap see 155-160hp.

[Easty]

i'm up for a group buy on the cams :)

[davew]

[davew]
