from what i remember
decat
gpa system
unichip
cams
bda
was rr at 140bhp
He probably would have been gutted if it only made 140bhp with that spec 
Steves was exhaust and decat
taipan filter
manifold
chip
and was rolling roaded at 150bhp IIRC
It was 140bhp with exhaust, decat and filter I think
Add some cams and TB's and it would have been around 180bhp I would imagine.

I'm undecided whether to put mine on those wheels? they look good - but close up they look a bit plain?
Then I'll be sorting handling + engine.

many cars on the SSC and PGAC have seen around 200bhp with TB's on the 1.6 16v engine. Forced induction works better yes, but thats not to say that TB's on the pug/cit engine cannot produce good power

have a look at this
http://www.dcoe.net/gallery/Videos/bic008.avi
and say that again! Running about 180ish bhp I believe, his next version of the car is running 204 bhp.
Brrrm brrmm...
that much power in something so light is very nippy.

yeh I don't really fancy putting aftermarket alloys on there. Hence I'm thinking maybe VTS rims - so I have similar rims to standard, but with 15" and 195 width tyres for a bit more grip.

Id say get some and spray them white as white wheels look ace on the blue 106's. They would look less plain then too If you are looking at lowering I would reccomend -50mm Eibach springs that I have. I want some Bilstein shocks to go with them but I have no money
