What do they go for and what do I need to run them

 

[Dan@SJM]

Well, mike sold his for £1500 fitted iirc.

You just need a map to run it. Mines running 200bhp, with 197 cams, decatted yozza.

They arent currently available to buy new, so its a case of finding one secondhand and they dont come up massively often TBH

Should imagine that was fitted AND mapped if it was that price TBH?

 

[Cup M@]

Does anywhere still sell them new? Just seen your post chip scrap this question

No, not currently, the only people who own the rights to make them are Stone Automotive and they arent currently doing so.

I can't remember mate, was tim's one? I didn't enquire about buying it so don't know what the price was lol

How come did they not sell or something?

 

[Dan@SJM]

Not much profit-labour ratio iirc.

Yup, for the money in them, imho its not worth the hassle.

Anyone got a graph of the RS2 and 197 Cams? Is the torque line as smooth as it is with standard cams?

James can only make them for anything like sensible money if he has an order of 10 or so of them in order to get sensible prices on the parts.

To make as a one off it would need to be about 2 grand sadly to be worth his while.

As mentioned already in this thread, there wasnt a huge amount of profit in each one, so its just not worth him doing it unless loads of people want them all at once and now that the group buys have already happened its less likely to find so many people all in one go that want to.

Just as smooth but slightly lower, when you fit the 197 cams you trade in some torque in exchange for it being far better at high rpm.

Here is Mikes Graph:
