you want atleast a 286, its not a huge cam. I wouldnt put a 300 degree + in a 1380 or 1430 though, because you will have no torque. Mine pulls throughout the revs and is doin about 80 at 5000rpm. I just find n/a engines alot more fun to get power out of, and turbos are one more thing to go wrong, IMO! lol. I no other people will disagree and i do like turbos on other cars. 8 port 1380 :kiss: sorted.

ps. glad u enjoyed it wolfy :thumbsup:

not really much that can go wrong with a turbo if its built and used corrently...its just alot of people dont have a clue how to use a turbo engine corrently and so end up trying to rev the moobs off them or dont change oil often enough! debris ruind the brass bearings inside which suport the shaft! thats when you get play
