   Kent do many cams if you have a stock VTS engine then any of there VTS fast road ones can be used to give you more power. The wilder ones will not work with out more mods to fit them.

   Hmm all really the sane Newman, cat cam, piper, Kent cams, Kent and piper are a bit more expensive cat cam have a good deal on 708's, and Newman ph3 are 350 ish quid.
   
   Will need a remap and cams set up for the full benefits of the camshaft.

    157bhp is the norm with breathing mods & 708's. (best i've seen is 163bhp)
    
    The rev limit needs to be increased & the ECU remapped (or mappable ECU fitted & mapped) to achive new peak power once cams are fitted, thats where things get expensive.
    
    I'll be going down this route in the near future myself...
