   Is it worth it and what power gain would you expect?

   There are many different cam specs available so gains would depends on what you go for. You will get better gains the more you spend. For example a mild road cam will show a small gain compared to a wilder can combined with a few other mods such as a quality ported head and custom mapped will show a much bigger gain. Most people would say generally cost and effort wise you would be best to sell the VTR and simply buy a VTS if your only after a little gain. But I went and tuned a 1.4 so hay everyone to there own
