I personally know a german guy running 530 on a 205 block, he didn't expect it to last either, despite going to the ring at least 2 times a month and using it hard on the autobahns, it's done in excess of 110,000, kilometres, about 65,000, that was 6-7 years ago.
I have seen some idiots bore these without a deck plate on, they are as wobbly as a wobbly thing when being bored so maybe that's one reason ?

Seems strange how my lift and duration figures for my old CW1 are exactly the same as the AB07. When i was talking to Ahmed about getting my car mapped i said it was on standard cams, he said i have just developed a new cam that could be used without pocketed pistons, He supplied and fitted a CW1 cam on my engine.

On kents old web site they didnt list a AB07 but did a CW1 & CW2, this has now changed to the other way around. Ahmed also developed a CW2 cam which is no longer listed, this was slightly more aggressive than a BD14 so a BD14+ of you like.

The figures on the Kent Website for the CW1 are 8.61mm lift & 263 duration.

The AB07 in the Kent Book are 8.85mm lift & 256 duration.

Steve the figures i was given for my cam 3 years ago are the same as the AB07 you have just put up. Ahmed said to me 3 years ago it was his new cam he had designed. I assummed it was the CW1, you know what they say about assumptions being the mother of all fuck ups. I can only apologise for any mix up Steve i dont mind admitting when i got it wrong.

Steve your head will be ported more than mine, but my turbo is slightly bigger so should imagine it will pull very well. I couldnt change gear fast enough when i first had it mapped, still catches me out now if i havnt driven it for a while.

I had to use the car to get to work yesterday and i only managed about 7mpg on the way home, safe to say i am still enjoying it.

Cam combo's are most important when building a YB the Top Tuners spend lots of development time on getting the combo right. Please dont listen to the punters on an internet Forum they aint got a clue & no proper Tuner is going to give away his hard earned secrets. Im amazed at what people fit so far away from optimum for the Power levels its a joke .

At this level rod i dont think it will matter but in essence i totally agree with you..
The amount of people we get come in with a pair of bd16s with a gt 3071 for example,its just over kill...
You only need a good inlet cam up to 550 hp and then worry about the exhaust..

Question about this cam - if fitted would the map have to be changed or could you run it without altering the off the shelf MSD map i have??
