Velocity 16V Cam setup and 50mm manifold...

["Shannon Fenton" <sfenton@amazon.com>]

I just talked to someone at velocity about thier article in Eurpean Car
(ukk..i feel like a chump for buying that garbage)and the Shrick 260 intake
and 276 exhuast cam combo is $710.00! In case you havnt read the article its
poorly written as with most thier articles and contains some interesting
dyno charts with different 16V cam set ups and they say how vital the 50mm
intake manifold. This was repeated by the rep on the phone with me, velocity
sells the new 50mm intakes for 800.00. He said I would see an increase with
the cam setup on my current motor but to truly realize the gain I needed the
50mm manifold. The european car aritcle starts with a 9A 2.0 16V with a
mildly ported 1.8 head with a valve job and euro intake cam running Motronic
chipped by GIAC. They state a 14hp increase running a TT race header and the
50mm manifold. So, ymmv and this was a pretty built motor to start out with.
