    Rebuilding a forged bottom end on my TT (was auto and now manual) and was wondering if it is worth fitting my spare NA inlet cams. I will be running hi flow turbos and 550cc and the rest very much stock for now.
    Thanks

    I though auto TT cams were more desirable over the na/manTT cams?

    hmmm, at a cross roads.

    have an auto TT engine i built up to with the same mods.
    also have spare NA manual cams.

    how much down low can you gain from retaining the auto cams?

    I've done this. I noticed the boost come on around 200rpm later with the manual cams.

    If you have the manual cams to throw in while the engine is apart then do it but I personally don't think it's worth while chasing a set up to do it.
