   Thinking about buying fast road cams and then remapping my 1.4 saxo, what sort of diffrences should i see, what bhp would I be looking at, and would it actually be worth it?
   
   Would be good to hear from someone who has done this
   
   Cheers.

   Are they 16valve? Otherwise it's "cam" and remap
   
   I think my Predator ECU runs 1.4's
   
   Just a thought

   im looking into this my self, would it matter if an engine just gone 90,000 miles on a w reg.
   
   I dont know much bout the history but plan on service every 6 months, as i get parts at cost price.
