I have taken the plunge and booked my car in for a comp cam 224/228 112LSA special grind (secret) and a 25% udp,918 valve springs,Double row timing chain and full retune.Daniel at chipmaster has been given the job and I must say he is very approachable and helpful and I feel 100% peice of mind knowing that the most important part (to me) of a cam change is getting the tune to tie it all together.I will keep you all posted on how the new cam performes and thanks to Daniel for making a car available for me to drive this morning it seems to suit my needs to a tee.
Thanks again to all that have given their thoughts and recommendations (many of you).
Let the hunt for an 11 begin
Cheers Darryn.
Well done Daz, whens the big day.

No really I believe the cam will give me everthing I need for day to day driving and more power will be a waste of $$$.I will start to finish of the looks ,I do want a XR8 bonnet and full leather interior,HSV gauges on top of dash and will need a Tex then she's all done.
not sure on rev limit but I will find it .
That may very well be the quote of the new year for me... LOVE IT!!!

I am a bit of a throttle jockey I was fine until I owned a RX7 for a while, since then expect everthing to pull 12,000rpm.

I can imagine it now..
Engine: "Bwaaaaarp, bup, bup, bup, bup, bup, bup!!!"
Daz, as he gets thrown into the seatbelt : "Whoopsie..."
Gotta admit, I did that a few times over the years, just loving the note so much, wringing its neck. Then wammo, brick wall of a rev limiter!
Its bed time for little Sparky, enjoy the rig Daz! Im very, very jealous!
Very jealous...
