ok, so if you want to get anywhere near that power you will need to get a performance inlet manifold. bout 500 quid but good for 15-20 bhp. probably the most power effective mod you can get, couploe that with a drilled airbox, full zoorst and unichip then you shouls be pushing similar power.

yeah, alturnatively, the velos torque tube, more people have this as its cheaper and does the same, infact i think it may be slightly better, ed renshawe has one on his.
