    Now I know there's a long 2ltr 16v thread but I can't find the answer to my question, which is:
    A few years ago AMD did a high torque conversion for the ABF which consisted of a chip, gas flow and 'high torque Schrick cams'. Does anyone know what spec these cams were?
    I phoned AMD but was told by the bloke on the phone 'Sorry mate I didn't work here then and we don't do them anymore'. :clap: Can anyone help?

    I beleive all the major tuning houses won't touch an engine these days
    unless it's got 20 valves and a turbo or a 'PD' prefix before its power
    figure...

    I didnt know they had offered this for the ABF actually, tho for the KR it was a popular conversion.

    The cams would I think 99% be Shricks, but to be fair a decent re-map cat back exhaust give nice enough gains the ABF anyway.
