Was talking to Warren G at the beginning of the year and he said this should get about 165-170bhp.

Performance Inlet Manifold
Ashley 4 Branch Manifold
Cat, Lexmual/Bastuck 2.5" System
AutoSprint 256Degree Camshafts
EDS Remapped ECU to suit Mods with raised Rev limiter

Or you could go full on and get the Dbilas turbo conversion (costs about £4 or 5k iirc) which is striaght away 230bhp and you don't need to play with internals.

I've seen the copies on eBay, but for the money I'd rather get a decent set of cams. Suppose you could always get both :)

Just to add check Corsa-C. I've heard good things about the John Ashley manifolds, good price and will be built to your spec
