depends if its early or late engine there is a significant difference. To optimise power after a series of modifications a custom remap will be required.

if your going for the wild chip anyway you won't need a remap right away, but custom chip/megasquirt will help release more ponies after all that work.

late engine so very likely to be running around 155/160bhp at the moment

i would think with the above done youd get around 180ish

similar mods minus the cam got 203/204 recently but that was after a full remap etc
