Unichip = £400
Viper = £250
Mantzel = £475
Head work = £300?
Exhaust manifold £170

Your very nearly there.

Once you've done all this all you can do is sell it and start again, with throttle bodies you can add to it.....

I dont think mine will fit cos i had a mare trying to get the OE air box to fit cos of the angle the throttle body is at + with the power box there is a breather pipe that goes to the Air box dont know what i will do with this, its the small breather from the top of the cam cover.
Hey broster you could do with one of my polished cam covers!!!!, i hand polish them myself i will show you at the next meet

Kerry

posted on 10th Nov 03 at 13:03

i dont think there are any proven figures

im on rr in 2 weeks so il let u know mine :)

i think its around 5 bhp but some people are sure its more. i think the higher peformance engine the more potential for bigger gain
