maybe full boost by 3300rpm.
t34 wheel would be a much bigger move though, would be much laggier, but better torque when it comes in.
all depends how you want it to drive really.
Big big difference between the way a .48 spools on a 2.0 and a 1.6 Sean.

My 55trim work from a bit over 3500
I would say 55trim t3 mate
My dad advised me against 60 trim iirc due to being lagger and they really howel on full boost?!
Thanks Jimbo, what do you mean by howel?? lol

A bit of a side point, but what sort of diff did the newman cam make over standard?
TBH I can't really say as I changed too many variables at once when I fitted it! But it's not lazy!
lol
IIRC the profile is
similar to that of a stock RST cam but flows more up top.

Goes like s**t when on full boost, Depends if you like lag or not?
Joe
.63 on a 1.6 will behave like that! Anyone remember D4's first 300bhp print out?!
lol
