you want to add 40bhp (roughly 25% more power) cheaply on a N/A 20 year old engine, its not that easy

less weight = more power get stripping haha. with cams n system n chip u probably getting close to 200bhp per tonne. i fully rebuilt my redtop to try get near standard power of 147bhp before mods, suppose it all depends on the life your xe has had.

Prety sure later were 147, bt ahwel wouldnt notice anyway.
And wher have you got this idea of 50bhp gain from cams, system and remap, u may get about 15bhp tops, as proper pistons u cn only run shite lift cams. And if keeping stock inlet then ul neva get 200bhp!

yeah probly get near 170 bhp with them few mods, i was putting the 200bhp idea into perspective, i think a corsa at 900kg with 170 brake is close to 200bhp per tonne if u no what i meen mate.
