up 2 u, but your still going to be paying for a £300 remap

i'd study the power graphs between the 180 and 190 engines, find out where each one makes it power and tourque etc etc.

i can see the torque doesnt drop off in the zt as fast as it does in the 180. i have always thought my 180 was abit flat after 5000 rpm. so would there be much of a benifit?

Personally I think if your going to the effort of changing cams you may aswell go for the Piper upgrade

just trying to save some money shroon. personally if there is only a couple of bhp in it i will go for the 190 cams and save my self 400 odd quid as i dont think that amount of money is worth a coulple of bhp. if there is a big difference between the 190 cams and piper cams i will go the piper route. just trying to establish the difference between them and see how much £££ per bhp im getting
