is the 400 quid worth the hp i agree that you should get it mapped with cams but not really worth it with the 270. There is alot of things that you should do, like let oil warm up but when at pompey rr day not one member warmed the engine up before it was redlined on the rollers.

if you are after a bit more power and dont mind the idle i dont think adding 270 and not mappin would do much damage. My car has been like it for 3 years now and not a problem, iv now gone to kms as im goin to run throttle bodies and maybe 285, i can justify the map/ecu now.

If you also go onto the qep web site look at cat cams for the gti6 it doesnt mention anything about an ecu map untill you get to the 285 cams so the same ish profile pipers dont need it either.
This is my opinion so do what you want.
Do you then get it mapped each time you change air filter, exhaust... Could get

i asked collin about tea leaves. And he said he has never had a problem . collin told me the farmer would have no problem in gettin the 12 bore out if someone was on his land. I no i wouldnt want to go there on the thieve. And if you do i doubt you would get very far.

As col lives on the farm i think he might hear you drive up the drive way and stop you.
Every garage you go to has a sign to say if you leave your car its at your risk, if you like chickens you can sleep with them to make sure its safe.

And it says nothing of the sort.
It recommends a fully adjustable ECU/Carbs or different inlet because a standard system more that likely will not cope properly with the inlet pulses generated with the larger camshafts, even if remapped, it DOES NOT say you shouldn't remap the car, not on the Piper site, not on the Catcams site, not on the Kent site and not on the Newmans site either.

Yes?

Where does it say 'use with standard ECU settings' or 'No ECU remap required' ?

Frankly, yes, they'll run without one, but if they're making more power, then you're running leaner up top, simple as that, at a guess, they're making very little extra power at the minute, but because you haven't remapped the ignition down low, you've now got a slight dip in torque before it comes on cam so it feels better than it really is.

I cant understand why you would take the chance on not getting an engine mapped when replacing camshafts? If you go to the extent of replacing them then why not make sure the engine is mapped / setup correctly.

They'd probably assume that anyone replacing a camshaft had at least some knowledge of how an engine worked.

Piper list a cam with a powerband to 9krpm, would you try that on a stock engine because it doesn't say anything about need to alter it?

My reason was because i Knew i would in the end get throttle bodies and then standalone ecu so dont see the point of payin to get my standard one mapped just to change it later and lose that money.
Should it fail the mot if its over fueling due to not bein mapped?

What exactly, other than your lack of speeling and grammer skillz, are you trying to prove Pugheaven?

Those second technical specs don't specifically state that a remap is required but it's common sense really. Nowhere does it say that a different map is not required though.

With all due respect, I think Phillip is better informed on this subject* so you should probably stop arguing about this.


* excluding fuel pressure regulators which he knows nothing about. Whistle

Nope, the lambda sensor should sort that given it'll be running in closed loop at MOT speed.
You might get a lovely bit of bore wash when you boot it though.
