Cams will make it a bit quicker. But depending on what you want depends on what profile of cams to go for.
Eg a good normal set of cams are 708 cat cams or newman ph3's. Nice spread of usable power. If you go with lairy cams, idle will be less than optimal and the power band will be narrow as hell so will need a very short box to compensate for that.
Also would recommend andy's (datashift) predator ecu. It's plug and play and great value for money. I have one myself and Andy is a great help as I had no idea about it, still don't tbh but that aint his fault lol Andy is a sax-p affiliate with his own forum bitty.
Although all this has been covered before and a quick search will probably come up with more info. I feel in a generous mood tonight so not just posting "search" :D

Yeah thats the guy.
Yeah my car was definately faster with the new cams mate.
But nah, not really got the hang of tuning it tbh mate, don't have time or ideal conditions to tbh. And my car is being sold as well, not that that is a reflection on the quality of the ecu at all, just time to move onto a different scene.
Oh text talk is not needed though mate, just a quick heads up :)
