Despite what anyone tells you, fitting j4 cams to a JP4 is a total waste of time.
I've bought a C2 VTS engine am I correct in assuming this is a JP4S with the better valves etc, I have been told to swap the springs over from the Saxo VTS but I'm not sure it's needed.

I also have a C2 VTR engine & was thinking of putting the Saxo VTS cams in that will that make any differences?

Sorry meant to ask about the re-map are the ECU's mappable then? Any recommendation in South Yours?

The C2VTS (JP4S) springs should be fine. If they're green, you don't need to change them

No idea what engine is in a C2 VTR, but you can be sure that "fast road" cams for that engine will be better than any OEM retrofit.

Yes the ECU's require a remap

No, I've no idea who's near you that can do it

C2 VTR is the JP4.

You can use J4 cams but they're slightly off centre of the lifters. No biggy, just wear quicker.
