195bhp on standard inlet with just cams and headwork? Mine is running less than that on a tb'd setup with cams and headwork :S (Admittedly mine should be just over 200, but still 195 seems quite optimistic to me or have i missed something?)

YAWN you get wide and close ratio of all box's. The F number does not denote the ratio.
