Atm my car is running 148bhp at the wheels (only mod is stealth exhaust system) so my car is producing about 177bhp at the fly. I'm thinking of getting inlets matched and getting a custom remap later on in the year. Could I achieve 190/200bhp? Or would I need a 182 manifold n cams to achieve...

Since the standard 172 wheels (for example) weigh about 20kg each (with tyres fitted) that is a crazy weight for a wheels. So is it not possible to get them lightened? Can you even do this? Or would the only way around it to get some made up new in a lighter material? Im assuming that would cost...
