Hey, I have myself a lovely 97 EK4.

I made a purchase a while ago of 98spec JDM ITR cams.

Was going to get a mechanic/friend to drop them in, but as I'm an impatient sod, I cant be ar5ed waiting to get the cash up, and I'm of work for a week an kinda bored silly. I thought nows a good time to learn.

So, any guides or advice would be greatly welcomed.
 
better repleace the ITR v spring and stem seals at the same time .
 
depends a lot on budget, what hp figures you want to achieve etc more info needed :D
 
Im no expert but my builder said match the valvetrain with the cams. std valvegear aint designed to work with aftermarket cams.
 
there are cams which can be used on standard valve trains such as skunk2 tuner 1's and 2
 
for A/N I like buddyclub spec V with big compression piston. For turbo application skunk 2 PRO 2. for any application I will recommend change valve spring and retainer.
 
Go on Evans tuning website or YouTube and search camshafts install or something similar. They have videos even for assembling whole engines and trannys.
