Luke Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Fair play to you, I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to modding my car. I always think the worse is going to happen. That will be one hell of a motor when its done, be interesting to see what you think of it. What do you think the bhp will be? Luke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helfinger Posted January 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 well judging from mick clements R his was done recenlty on the rollers at 'well lane turbo' and it pushed out 307 bhp so i would be very happy with that...i also have a CDA fitted as well where he was on stock air box so i will just have to see if that does anything extra. I have done 18K now so it should be run in now..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 AMD 4, Won't you have to re-bed the engine for the new cams. So no banging the rev limits for a bit. I still get scared in my stock one, mind you 90 mph bends are 90 mph bends in both a 250 6463 and a 315 AMD 4! Enjoy it, but be respectful (for a week or two) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenny Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Cant wait to see the dyno graph.... I still have never seen a AMD stage 3 or 4 graph. I am sure the car will be amazing though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3WOB Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Even at school graphs never held much interest for me. I'm really interested in an impartial view on how the driving experience is changed. Having only had a few short rides as passenger in 32s with Stage 3 which I understand are effectively a Stage 4 minus the sports cats, would be great for a more informed review from the drivers perspective TIA Helfinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helfinger Posted January 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 no probs guys i will give you my honist opinion on how it differs and if its really worth the cash!! I will be taking it easy to begin with just to bed it in, but i'm sure there will be some instant changes so i will let you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32Ash Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Are the cams used by AMD their own profile, or something which someone else has developed - i.e. Schrick or similar? Just curious. Ash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helfinger Posted January 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 I'm not 100% sure if they are developed by Schrick with AMD or just Schrick cams...i will ask when i pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32Ash Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Thanks Helfinger, it's not important really.. I'm just curious like I said. Mainly because I'm wondering if the other mods which add together to make up stage 4 are specifically designed to suit the cams and vice versa if you understand what I'm saying? i.e. would the cams only really suit a car with the ECU upgrade and Miltek etc?
