as far as i know you need a number of things to be evident for prosecution;
1. Exact time and date of offence
2. Exact road in which the offence took place
3. Evidence of speed being traveled
4. Evidence of who was driving the vehicle
5. Exact details of the vehicle been driven
without any 1 of them the case would be thrown out of court.

eg. a police officer could watch that video and tell you what speed you were doing to the nearest .5 mph because officers are trained for that sort of thing

I'll let Chris answer that.....but lets just say 'quite a bit'
To qualify that, I've spent about £2k on mine to get from 145 to 165bhp.
Chris is nigh on 300bhp
Given the laws of diminishing returns, I'll let you interpolate that
edit; spelling ffs, too late again

Wouldn't it have been a hell of a lot cheaper buying the turbo version instead and then mapping it lol.
