Hey that sounds great.

But beware that Phase 3 is too aggressive for FWD cars.
That's min opinion after having it 6 months in my Nova.
Now with the Phase 3,5 it drives much better.

to corsac20let:

my mates nova turbo is running 299.9 bhp at the fly with 285lb ft on phase 3, It very agressive and usually he has to run it with the switch on setting 1 to try and stop it wheelspinning everywhere.

my phase 3 let nova was the same as his but I was using the xe inlet cam and it seemed a lot more laggy but seemed to drop the power nicely and didn't wheelspin to much.

Do you know much about xe inlet cam? have you experimented with it or do you just go to a pair of uprated cams instead?

also whats the most noticeable difference between phase 3 and 3.5?

sorry for all the questions!

To Jonlem:

I have the C20XE cam as well.
I already had it in the Phase 3.
And still us it in the Phase 3,5.

It is still to much power for a Nova or Corsa.
But it drives much better and the power is over an wider range of revs.

I have a dyno run on paper from Phase 3 and 3,5 I will upload them a.s.a.p.
to my webpage.
