Hi Damo.

I could be interested in the Cam and the Chip if these are available and funds are available too..

Would these fit my later 2.3lpt?

Cheers,
Kelv

My only modification so far is a larger exhaust and an MBC - would the cam be suitable?

yea, its a good mod. the LPT runs out of torque at 4500 rpm due to the cam. with this cam it revs freely to 6/7000 rpm. you will defo feel the difference .This and a bigger front mount intercooler should see at least 25 bhp but will put you in good stead for further mods down the line like turbo and injectors...depending on what you were intending to do

Thank you.
I'm not intending on going for massive gains just yet, maybe further down the line....

I call it Volvo V-tec as you get to about 4krpm and you get a boot up the backside from the camshaft kicking in.
