Is your full exhaust system cat back?

Or from the manifold?

things like...

4-2-1, cams, de-cat, inlet etc...

wouldn't remap unless you alot of tuning that way you'll see a much better gain.

You will feel it in more effect yes, but 10bhp is 10bhp. Regal will dyno it before and after also to show your gain. Save for an inlet if you can, well worth it imo.

If you have the money! £700+ new IIRC.

Currently deciding whether to go for an ebay inlet or a Lexmaul, can get both cheap but I dunno what sort of gains you get with the Lexmaul...?

If you can get the dbilas I recomend it, its £460 without a chip. IIRC its just a superchip, may as well not get the chip if you plan a remap in the future
