1.6 Cam
« on: October 18, 2010, 09:50:39 pm »
Anyone know if there's a cam available for my 1.6 n/a? It's got a mechanical head and I would prefer one with more bottom or midrange.

Dr. Diesel made some high performance cams for hydro heads, I don't think there's such a thing for mech heads.
'82 Rabbit, I put on a euro vnt-15, 2.25" DP, 2.5" exhaust, the result.....it whistled.

I removed the turbo, made a toilet bowl 2.5" DP, the result....it was deafening. Now it has a homemade muffler up front and a thrush in the rear, the result.....less loud.

I don't think there's any difference.

I think there is a slight difference not much but give it a try and tell us how much.
