http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180214147623&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123

he replyed by with :-
standard bhp is 153.
induction kit 5 bhp
power cap 7-10 bhp
de-cat 7-10 bhp
large bore exhaust system 5-8 bhp
port + polish 5bhp
that totals a max of 191 bhp


why do people buy carbs and throttle bodies

Have you noticed how many low miler XE conversions there are, where do people find these gems everytime you see a car with a different engine in, its always had the best of everything, lowest mileage etc.
