Thanks payu,

Motor will be far from stock , would like to see if anyone has a worked mooted over of n1s vs 184-e

Tuning is not a hassle as I can do it.

Motor will have the following:

Jamie's head
Custom intake that flows very well!
88mm build at 13.5:1
Forged pistons and rods,
Custom header and 3" zorst.

Trying to work out whether it's worth swapping the 20v/n1s...

The head you will be using has oversize valves?? What brand piston you are using?
Measure valve to piston clearance also if you have oversize valves make sure pistons valve relieves have a lots of clearance for oversize valves!!!
I am going to say this on our experience the best combo so far its 184-C IN N1 EX even on a 335whp 92x92 13:1 motor!!

Thanks payu!

Pistons are cp have valve reliefs have been modified to suit.

Rods are Manley .

By my calcs it took off just under 1kg or rotational mass should be good under the foot..

Everyone keeps saying the 184c is good but just wonder why kelford made this other cam there must be benefits from it...

In theory should work perform better that 184-C but I have the feeling they didnt match the EX cam correctly too much duration and no increase in lift over 184-C

They made the e cam for cars with itb. These cams can take better advantage of the increased air flow. They will not suit a standard style manifold from what we understand.

I am just curious payu if you guys have access to a map sensor and can measure if your going into vacuum with your 92*92 motor on the 184c cams. I know with my full custom manifold from excessive in the upper rpms the manifold was going onto vacuum with the 184c.

Yes at least on my car it goes into vaccum on the Dyno but if I am not mistaken I have seen on the street with the intake coming out of the headligth I see 0 vac

Very nice. That's good to know. I was thinking with the vacuum in the manifold that the 184e would actually lose you Hp.

I think Jamie knows the answer to vacuum and the 184 e cam ..

If your talking about the itb solution he knows who to blame for not having money in his pocket lol
