already looking at tuning bit they are well cheap, set of cams is less than £200 for an extra 12+ bhp, for a scoob you would be looking at a lot more

then maybe a set of uprated big end bolts (cosworth) strong as ****, allow the car to rev higher

Could always go for the QED throttle body conversion which is a bolt on and gives upto 200bhp alone along with a nice throaty induction roar!!
