Indeed that is in the pipeline. But TBF, i'm quite happy the way it goes for now.

Plus, i'm not clued up on what to do with the engine.

Want to complete the look of it with a few more minor touches

Want to get TB's edventually. The thing im confused about is verniers - The exhuast one, what do you do with cam sensor? blank it off?

Where can you get head work done?

What bhp do you reckon it would be with the things you've listed, on top of my mods?

Dbilas do verniers with the cam sensor lugs on, if you're using standard management.

If you're going for TBs at some point, don't do cams now, wait til you get the TBs, you'll want cams with a bigger duration, there's no point in buying 2 sets

AS for power, with inlet, headwork, exhaust, filter and remap, I'd expect about 140-145bhp

£1500 ish for TBs, linkage, inlet and fuel rail
£100 for injectors
£300 for cams
£100 for piston pocketing (if you go over 264 degrees on the cams, which you'll want to)

then you need new piston rings, cambelt, gaskets etc.

and £1k for management.

You'd say differently if you'd driven a car with them.

Worth every penny IMO.

(my prices were guesses too btw, Mark/Dave might be a better bet)

I just couldn't justify spending that much on TB's just to sell the car in a few years TBH.

However, i'd consider a second hand set.

Can't find anything on Dbilas verniers

Hmmm not sure. A ps wouldn't go a miss

I think semi-smooth boots only work on some colours, and what mods the car already has. And brocade yellow is a bitch to colour match.
