Default Help!

Cam belt decided to fook off this morning and took some exhaust valves with it.
So seeing as it's all apart, it'd be rude to put the standard parts back on so a stage 2 setup is planned (pushing 300bhp hopefully)

What I want to know is, is it worthwhile getting the head ported whilst it's off or is it just a waste of time and money with a fairly mild tune?

Also which head gasket to fit to cope with the extra power?

Any input on this is appreciated as I need to order the parts ASAP as this is my daily driver and has left me without a car


Also, I'm gonna be fitting 803 green injectors and a -31 actuator, will the car be ok to run like this untill I get it chipped and set up or will it over fuel horribly?

iirc it will not run without a stage 3 chip fitted on the 803's and 3bar, and if you fit the 803's using the std 2bar and the 803's then it will overfuel like a bastard

Not sure It might be worth waiting untill you get it chipped and set up ect
