Does that price include the exhaust as well ?
But I'm sure that the price in US is not the same . If so, a solution could be send the cams to a friend located in US and then ask him to send the package here as gift in order to don't pay the VAT .
You could ask just for the camshafts and tuning. (Don't forget we need 4 camshafts for our engines - stock camshafts cost 600euro/piece !)
When you bought your car you didn't pay ? 600/each .
The new camshafts would be a super mod . But with ?5000 we can go to Norway to supercharge it, gaining 200 HP instead of 20 .
Wait for a month or two and you will see a video by me with 6500-7000 rpm with the stock camshafts . I bet they are good and that the engine will pull well till 7000 .

No, no, only the camshafts!!

Look at the price of the stock exhaust Andy : I paid mine 1200 EUR and it is better (as performance) than their one .

February, 5th 2008, one of the engineers of DMS will travel to Switzerland to upgrade my 545.
I expect to have 370 hp and about 500 NM after that.
I can't wait to see or feel the result and I will report to this forum.
The real gain will be 10-15 HP, not 35 .

Ask him to come here too, I need 100 HP more
The real gain will be 10-15 HP, not 35 .

Are you sure? Where does your information comes from? DMS claims about 370 HP and they proved it on their own rolling road. Why do you think it will be "only" 10 - 15 HP? Do you have any proves for this statement? On the other side: it's not only the pure increase in HP and NM which is relevant. It's also the kind of deliverance of the additional power. Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to the upgrade and I trust DMS that I will be satisfied with it. So is also the warranty of DMS (complet satisfaction) and you have to search very hard to find a comparable offer, right?
Try yourself : get a dyno today and with DMS remap tomorrow

DMS claims about 370 HP
DMS is also a company with an interest in profit...
370hp just from a remap on our car =
with a air filter + exhaust = 355-360
good luck with it anyway - you will feel a difference for sure !
