    Headwork and cams you said.

    Changed your mind then?

    I thought you might.

    Not changed my mind at all plus I said 190hp and was correct. You were wrong. Chin up.

    Time to retire to the crustycrab.

    We've just done 185 on a megane engine with nothing but cams and Omex. That's still using a valver ex manifold too.

    would you not be able to achieve the same using std ecu and the same cams?

    No, no way. Some people struggle to make these cams work even with standalone, on the stock plenum

    what does the omex allow you to control that the standard ecu doesnt? which results in the better mapping for thes cams?

    No need to use a MAP sensor, so the load is based purely on throttle position. So load signal isnt going to be influenced by high duration/overlap.

    There is still alot of reversion and charge robbing on a single throttle plenum with wilder cams, hence the rally-esque borble.

    What spec cams were those Dan? What torque did it make?

    No, i qualified my statement by saying it was around 170-175 bhp. I also stated that it was a guess. Plus i dont make engines for a living and so have nothing to gain by lying.

    If someone claims to be able to get 185 from a megane engine with just cams and omex, then prove to us all you can. Especially as that person is in the business of selling products to WC member.

    If you cant i will go around claiming 195 bhp from the same modifications and claim to be able to extract more bhp than GDI.

    Dont bopther posting rolling road results, they are as accurate as a drunken piss in a rugby coach.
