What are peoples thoughts on cams these days (c1j) Is it still the piper 285 (what spec is it now???) or are we leaning away towards catcams etc?

We require a cam including vernier etc suitable for road use, looking at either a quick spooling T25 type turbo or a VNT if we can get one cheap enough. The engine made 180bhp at 17psi with a saab t25 and standard cam so looking at hopefully the 200bhp mark with a little better breathing.

Any recommendations with prices etc??

i also am interested in thoughts on a cam for a similar set up ill be using a t25/t2 with .63 t2 ex housing i currently have a bb tuning cam in there which is a tad milder than piper 270. i will upgrade to a t28 front with the .63 t2 housing down the line.

is there a cam thats in between a 270 and 285 ?

285 is still a pretty good allrounder for a road car :agree:
