It won't increase your BHP, just makes your engine smoother by getting rid of flat spots etc..

There's been numerous threads about this in the past.. do a search.

If you want more BHP, get yourself a decent panel filter (Pipercross, Jetex etc) a decent performance exhaust (Jetex, Supersprint, Miltek etc) and a performance manifold..

Or go all out and fit a Supercharger or Turbo

When i remapped my old vr6 years back, it certainly gave me more power. Its hard to say how much, as i also done the filter and exhaust before i put it on a rolling road.
I would estimate anything from a 6-12bhp increase.

As said with a charger/turbo your looking at atleast 3 grand. With a charger set up your looking at about 260-280 bhp with standard internals, turbo setup will give more power, about 300-350 bhp but you will need to uprate alot of bits.

Personally i'd rather go the shrick manifold, 263 cams n a remap route, should be good for 220bhp.

Cams - 300-350?
