Got the car rolling roaded today and pretty pleased with the results:
Was expecting 126bhp with the BMC, but maybe a potential loss due to my standard exhaust being a bit dodgy, got 126.9bhp on the second run

Them results are not bad mate
At least you've gained something with Bmc.
But the price of the BMC for 1.9bhp increase is a bit steep. 1.9bhp for £100 odd quid
But you may see more of an increase with a new manifold, stainless exhaust sytem and decat etc etc

Only 7.5...in total
Looks like I got a nice healthy engine. The car was an ex demo but it's had its oil changed every 5000 miles with 1 exception. Probably running it on V-Power helps a bit too. BMC's are more for the noise than anything
