for the spec i would only go for a fast road cam to keep it responsive and with the stage2 turbo it will be rapid for the spec....

piper 285t .... kent cvh34 ... newman phase 4 but with the newman you will need to be able to adjust solid lifters ect....

after having loads of rs's i would get a piper 285t as it will drive realy nice and dont get a 285t2 because i find they just peak to hard and drop off to quick ... and ive had a 230bhp rs on the 285t ...

avalible from burton power but shop around as speedshack where doing them for £280 all in

yes, i had a piper T2 in my fiesta pulled good but as said above it dont pull as strong at 5k, lads on ft.com say kent are good then others say there shit, i would go for a newman myself after hearing/seeing results, you get what you pay for.

With your spec a stock motor factors cam is ideal, cheap, good profile, just as much chance of falling appart as any other! lol
