id recommend you do your homework before jumping in and buying a cam.

theres alot you need to know about the pro's cons of changing them over.

pro's being quicker car ob.

cons being shit idle, loss of low down power, fuel comsumption etc.

A remap will usually sort this out pretty well, may still be a little more lumpy than usual, but hardly noticable.

[cj_99]

may want to look into getting new followers and such

what sort of thing would i look at to get 150 bhp ?

my mates got a honda civic vti v-tech would be fun to beat him

[JamesR]

You have a 90bhp VTR engine or 98bhp?

I think the saxo will be a but lighter than your mates civic anyway so its a plus side :y:

im getting the 98 bhp

ye my m8s civic is 160 but he weighs twice as much

[Ben]

You'd probably need a new venier pulley aswell.

Catback exhaust, decat, 4-2-1 manifold, p+p tb, induction kit, PH3s, remap. And lose some weight from the car, and you will give him a very good go for his money.

Also look into suspension, brakes and tyres, they make all the difference on track :y:
