   Rough cost - £600 - £800
   Gains - Depends on cams
   
   PH3s and a remap on a 90bhp VTR would see you to around 110 -115bhp
   
   Take it you have all the breathings mods already...?

   nope its basicly standard, would the 600-800 include labour for a garage to fit it?

   yeah get a 4-2-1 decat and straight hrough and an induction kit before you get a cam.
   i think you'll get a cam for less than £200 and a remap is around £3-400 i think

   The only thing you need to pay to get fitted are the Cams, and If your completely non-mechanically minded, then possibly the Manifold.
   
   The rest is just so simple - bolt off old, bolt on new basically. DO NOT pay a garage to fit things like an exhaust!
