    Again, assuming you're talking about a std 16v, I can second the vote for the 708s. I've run these in my 106 Rallye, with KMS management and induction/exhaust mods and seen around 155-160bhp. Made it feel pretty gutsy (more torque than anything else) and didn't harm its drivability.

    My Bad, for my 16v VTS. 708's then, which comes to my next question where to get them at a good price.

    As i missed out on the group buy.

    As Ryan said, I think QEP are the only distributer in the UK and are very reasonably priced. Sets often come up second hand though, so might be worth scouring some of the other Saxo/106 forums before you buy.

    Don't forget you'll need management too though - you're probably looking at around £450 for Wayne Schofield to remap your standard ECU, or QEP can also supply you a KMS unit.

    For info, if you're going down that route, I might have one for sale imminently
