Right i just fitted mine and the car comes on boost alot better now with my old set up full boost was around the 4.3k mark ..Now its as low as 3.5k mark,

The car is alot smoother. and revs right up to 6.5k which it didnt before..

So imo i did the right thing to change from a piper t2 to a std cam

it might be worth a try thats apparently how you get the best out of an uprated one so suppose it would work for a standard one aswell
