If my car sells today them im looking at this:

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2067245.htm

On the ad it says its got TF 135 cams installed, Powerflow Backbox and inner wing induction kit amongst other things.

Cheers

yea he has removed some of the stickers... your best bet for info is the xpf or .org, he used to be on there lots with the same name.
But yea your gonna want to move that intake because all its going to do is breathe the hot engine fumes and do sod all for the power.

Tbh could really do with vvc inlet and head to make the most of the cams, I wouldnt like to guess a figure.

yea he still has it as far as Im aware.. he's prob cleaning right now, he did say he was going to.
As for the power.. if its got the inner wing, tf cams poss 140-145bhp not totally sure but you could then go for a ss inter and sports cat.. iirc de-catting lost power due to back pressure problems, vvc, re-map... depends on how far you wanna go really.

Surely tf 135 cams won't fit into a vvc head and if your changing the head why not just vvc it? If you want a fast economical mg why not just get a 160 zr and keep it legal with insurance because I guarantee if you declare the mods on this they won't insure you and if you don't declare them it defeats the point in being insured. I don't mean to come across as a Richard cranium Nat but seriously think about it before you buy your next car.

Its Stokey Leeroys car, He got the cams put in with a full service, I believe George done the work and I think it was actualy the 140 cams that got put in.
Really nice car and Im surprised it hasnt sold sooner.

I put TF135 cams in mine along with a 52mm throttle body, stainless (cat back) system and cold air induction, the problem was it took the garage who fitted them ages so I wasn't able to notice the before and after difference properly.

The only thing I can tell you is that it feels quicker, revs harder and more freely and seems to have improved the car. Took a guy out from up here who has a standard 120 and he said it was quicker.

I suppose by nature if you are going from the stock set up which gave 115bhp to cams which give 135bhp you are going to get 135bhp, especially with the throttle body and improved induction.
