Tfsi_Mike:
Tsi cam roller conversion was a doddle to fit.  The hardest part was moving the hard fuel line slightly to compensate for the spacer

This is the best option available but I think that if one day I upgrade mine, I'll go for the Stattler Power Developments kit with reinforced cam lobe and cam follower. This is a fair bit more expensive. :smiley:

How much is that option?

Well, from what I remember the cam roller conversion kit is more expensive, at least.

Interesting. Is the cam lobe optional? Or is there any reason this follower wouldn't work well with a healthy OEM cam?

I'm just thinking along the lines of the OEM setup:

OEM follower is softer than the OEM cam, therefore the follower wears, not the cam. Replace follower before it gets too worn.

But this setup (hypothetical) :

New follower is harder than the OEM cam, therefore cam wears, not follower. Issue.

Or am I wrong?!
