i think i located the last set in europe.

schrick themselves are in shortage and they haven't manufactured many of those.

charged me 857 euro's for the entire set ( + 200 euros shipping express).

looks like a real good guy to do business with.

out of interest is that 2 cams per engine?
I presume you need custom mapping to take full advantage ?

those are two cams indeed.

you do need mapping to make use of them.

my engine is currently At APR USA and they are building a Stage 4 for me.

the problem is that Schrick is out of stock so i needed to find someone who do have them in stock.

i have got permission from APR to post for the first time exactly what stage 4 includes, but i will do it once i get some pics.

i'm flying to the US tommorow , and i'll be at APR wendsday and also attend Aterfest saturday.

updates will come in a dedicated thread when i get back.

hi berk,
was on a short trip and had to be in several meetings.

i actually had been in nashville , and since its only 300 miles away from APR decided to drop by and check my engine progress .

next time i'm there i'll give you a call.
