the brakes were round about £700, and i love them.

they look good and give a good feel, much better than the standard ones, can feel the bite much quicker

im hoping to get around 160ish bhp with the cams installed

Thats a serious push on a normal gearbox - you may need to get it uprated for it to manage that kind of power.
