Hey all, just got my Ef Xr6 on lpg dynoed only to put out 146.7hp :( Its completely stock apart from extractors. Just thinking of putting a cam in. I heard theres special gas cams is that true? I just want more power without losing economy & reliability..... Any suggestions?

Dont post up a quarter time unless it is a legit time, done at a track (i.e. at WSID or Willowbank etc.)

yo CAN post up G-tech and hand timed races...

BUT!!!!!

nobody will take it seriously and you will get laughed at.. g-tech and hand timing is so unreliable...

To get respect for the times race at an official track.. eg. "wsid/willowbank".........

when you quoted your'e times/speed i thought and probably others did that you raced on a track cos the speed and time sounded so "to the point -not generalized -like on the street.....

maybe a wade 1521a with a ECU or try for a RPD R6 with the rocker gear and the timing gear.
