    After cams and map.

    Well its obviously going to be faster after cams. Doesn prove what difference the map made on its own.

    Its very difficult to provide specific data to the general public on things like this though. The expense of testing and proving lots of diiferent cams on lots of different engine set-ups would be seriously expensive and the end customer would pay through the nose for the privilege.

    At the end of the day, you have to trust the tuner that you choose and believe he knows what hes talking about , otherwise take your car elsewhere. Its as simple as that.

    If someone asked me to provide evidence that my brake pads can withstand temps of over 1000 degrees F and still perform, I would be stumped. Yes its possible to do, but the expense would be crippling.

    I know they work and because they work so well, I can quite happily state that it doesnt matter how expensive a kit someone has on their car, its not going to outperform the kits I'm selling. Now wether a 6pot AP racing setup with 330mm discs will outperform the Wilwood kits (on standard discs) when you try to run 10" wide slicks on a car I cant comment, but then I'm not supplying those people anyway.

    If I was asked to show the kits were better than an equivalent set-up from AP or Brembo I couldnt and whats more I wouldnt. If people trust me to supply them with a good braking set-up, then they will buy from me. If they dont they'll go elsewhere.

    if you actually speak to Ben before all this criticising then you will soon realise he REALLY knows what he is talkin about, he does have the required knowledge to design a good cam, also Piper and Kent are mentioned, how much actual testing do they do on their cams, for all we know it might be very little

    at least give things a chance before rubbishing them, i cant believe this thread already, its totally stupid, everythin that gets posted up is jus pissed on by Stromba without a second thought, prove this, prove that, bla bla bla

    i fully understand you like to have a good reason for things to be better etc, a valid reason, as would i, but is there really any need for such a slagging off when Ben himself hasnt even posted on here, in my opinion, no

    In my industry Mark, i am not allowed to make claims without scientific backing, or peer reviewed citations.

    I think alot of missery would be saved in all industries, if in order to make a claim, it had to be backed by a scientific study.

    If no syudy exists, no claim is allowed to be made. Just advertise the product with an accurate descritption


    'Clio Williams camshaft with cam profile of this measurement'


    No bullshit about 30 BHP gain this, 'bridge test top speed that'. Its all crap and meanigless without the data to back it up.
