A UK '97 should be 208 bhp
A full decat costs about £500 (though you can do the exhaust in stages)
Panel filters are about £40 or an induction kit from K&N etc are about £90 (I think)
Don't bother with a remap yet (just found out your years ECU can be re-mapped, but don't know the costs yet, expect it will be around £700 though).
Stick to th better engine breathing route untill you've built up some more ideas from reading what others have done on here
