I would also like to know this. I would be after a slightly louder noise but not too obnoxious

Got any audio/videos of yours mate?
What's it like in terms of power and torque?

dont think i have audio. can look at the weekend though
it didnt really make much difference when i was at a rr. with the system and my BMC i only made 122.5bhp. Torque was the same as the book figure

Ah no way, did you have it RR'ed before the kit and BMC?

Ah cool. It has been tempting me more than ever to get a SS manifold, tidy exhaust system and a remap, 140bhp would be siick. Although i don't want to push it

im hoping to see around the 150bhp possibly 160 bhp once ive got the manifold re-map and cams in.
think i will need a new exhaust too as the rear box of my mongoose system scrapes over bumps and is starting to wear away

How much is it going to cost you to get the cams done?

i think i may have a mate doing them for me if he has time, if not im going to get a garage to do them. so the cost will depend where it goes
