If you want around 130bhp you want to find either some RS1800 cams, throttle bodies and Ecu or the same out of a 2L mondeo!

yeah sounds good, why is they a CVH32 cam? This is a zetec, lol......

The 105 BHP engine is in fact a 115 1.8 lump restricted via fuel.

Take the car on a rolling road and get them to tune it.

you will gain 10 bhp.

I did this at power engineering, im now running 115bhp @ 5250 revs. Which is 10 bhp more and lower down in the rev range. So now my round town driving is great fun.

I have done 92k miles on my engine. After u done that, i would change the inlet manifold to a 2L / 130bhp engine manifold. Im doing this.
