fly wheel doesn't effect power, on most engines the manifold and exhaust system just makes up lost bhp over the years however im led to believe a good full exhaust system can add up to 10-15bhp on vtrs, due to restrictive oem parts
so at best could be 100-110bhp depending on what engine you have but i wouldnt take that as a reliable figure its all guess work without before and after dynos!
cams are usually around £2-300, then about £100 for a headgasket kit/water pump/cambelt (add any other serviceable parts), then about £100 in labour to time the camshaft in correctly and about £300 for a remap so around £7-800 without labour of fitting the cam/headgasket, so imo not worth it at all (unless your getting the headgasket, cambelt done anyway which i suppose justifies fitting a cam)
EDIT: forgot 8v's dont have an oem adjustable pulley so will need one of those also if you want the most out of the cam
