hi iv'e just rebuild my engine in my gsi at the min i had the head ported
and skimmed new valve seals, head gasket and a new cam carrier as mine was scorn all over. while i was waiting for the head iv'e had the injection unit, cam carrier, rocker cover and dip stick polished.

just brought a ashley four into one manifold and middle system kept my magnex backbox. had it on the rollers and got 126 bhp and 144 bhp at the fly wheel is that right .

and i was wondering what i can do next like different cam, boost valve would a cam out a 1.8 help me

No 1.8 cam will fit as above. how about a 1.6 16v engine or throttle bodies and a mappable ECU from someone Emerald.
