Dropped the car off today then, stayed while it went on the rolling road and to my disappointment the car only made 161.2bhp.
They want me to try and get the standard airbox back on the car before they map it as Paul at rst doesn't think it's doing the car any favours

No, 
161bhp was before the cams.go in and with the.induction kit on, I wanted a power run beforehand so I could see what gains I got with the cams.
I don't know what to expect with the cams fitted, I suppose getting it back around the 180 mark would be good but that seems like quite a lot to me.

Mine climed 15bhp when it ran so you shouldnt be to far off the 180 Mark with a good map if not just above and I guess I depends how your vernier is set up

look on the bright side - you have 1.1bhp more than my 1.4 Golf 
Good luck with it, hope the final figure is worth it

Woo 1.1bhp makes all the difference lol, I'm not too bothered about the figures as long as I can feel a difference and the car drives well,
I should be picking the car up this evening so I'm looking forward to that

Does anyone know if the cams will need to bed in or is it just a case of once the cars warmed up floor it

I always thought they needed bedded in but wondered how they manage on the rolling roads as they always rev the tits off them
