Hi

I've been slowly building a 1.8 Xsi track car, it currently has the alloy block with a gti6 head and cams, gti exhaust manifold, stock intake manifold cut for gsxr1000 itb's. Running with a microsquirt.

The car is pretty quick hasn't been dynoed yet but it can keep up with a clio 172.

Still i feel like especially after the itb, it now needs more cam.

I know the gti6 has piston clearance issues with taller cams, but how about the 1.8 with stock pistons? a bit more room maybe?

Also has anyone used catcams 4903156 282ยบ with 10mm lift ?

Good insight welcomed regarding cam choices
thanks

Thanks Jeffers I read it.

Guess nothing better than taking head off and test/measure.

the 205 mob should have a bit more info about it since the xu7 16v has the same pistons as the 1.9 mi16 I'm lead to

believe?!?

no, they are quite different, xu7 has quite a long rod at 150mm, small dish in the piston, I don't recall the crown height but could easily work it out.

xu9j4 has a 143mm rod and 37.1 crown height and quite large valve reliefs.
