you'd be suprised, sometimes doing mods can make a engine run worser, especially when its still on standard manangement.

over 20 years...the head could be fresh but no good if rings are going and losing compression. what spec are the q42's? i know there qeds mildest so presuming something around 260dur 9.5mm lift? is it just the inlet you have ported or the head? any pics?

you 'may' see 160bhp with the cams but id of gone for an enclosed system to try and keep engine from sucking warm air in.

It's just I've never seen a standard XE make standard power.
