   hi people its a while since i have put any thing on here but im still around lol and basicaly i have just got some kent cams for silly cheap how ever there second hand and i am told they are really good condition and that i can return them if not happy so what i was wondering is if there is anything i should look for that would make them not work or what ever and also atm my car performance wise is standered other than a back box so will that be ok and just generally any bad long term effects they might have
   
   and help would be great
   
   many thanks craig x

   Conditions of the rotating surfaces, scores, evident uneven wear.
   
   It's hard to measure general wear tbh.

    They look fine mate, will just need remapped once fitted to get the full potentual. With the cams, full breather mods and one or two other things thats when you'll be looking at the VTS kind of speed.
    All depends on the individual car too.
    
    
    You're a twat btw

    keep at it. spend another few K and you could get 160bhp which would be awesome.
