depends on the type of jenveys used though, seen dcoes running poor power on tu engines due to the poor designs of most inlet manifolds needed to fit them to a tu.
Sandy brown has overcome this with a longer more DTH type inlet manifold for the use of DCOEs on TUs

Looking at around 165 to 170bhp but you can never be sure. Thas with the
headwork too sorry.
Its more the band of power that the setup improves from what Ive read.

See if you have the cams fitted, the head will almost be apart anyways I beleive.
Just having the bodies and Omex fitted may work out cheaper. But Im not sure
of the outcome without the cams in at the same time.

It is well recommended buddy!! 708's are probably the most aggresive you could put in and pass an mot... Without using forgies, valve springs, retainers, shims etc!!

With ECUs such as OMEX and the like, you can pass an MOT with any cam profile. You can simply run a program which almost puts it into limp mode, and it will pass an MOT.  Then pop it back over to your proper map programme, and bingo!

You can store. Basically mate, when you have an ECU such as an OMEX 600, you can look after your own engine management. All you need is a latop. The ECU will come with its own software. You can do all your own tweaking and what have you... fancy going on the rollers to tweak things? Just hire the roller out for an hour, and do all the work yourself...
