Yes they work though as with all simple bolt on bits don't expect to much.

It just cuts the bettery charge when you drive hard. So frees up a bit of power for when you most want it..

saxo cams arent a perfect fit in c2 heaxds, dont sit central on the lifters. told him i would only fit c2 cams as if any damage was caused by fitting the wrong cams i wouldnt want to be held responsible for fitting them.
edit: just re-read that, i thought you said 'to buy my cams', thats why i was on about saxo cams.

Good point. If it was my car, I'd only fit cams designed to be used in a JP4.
Think there's a big risk of valve/ piston contact using J4 PH3's/ 708s etc. in a JP4 too.

yes, saxo's ph3's are wilder than c2 ph3s, for a reason. falcus had 708s in his c2 engine and that dropped a valve.
