I went there today and they said
Race porting $1600 or $1050 for streetfighter
ECU tune $500
Cam Kit $872
Head gasket kit $110

Total $3232
then you need an exhaust to get 170RWKW

And then in 2 weeks time you will have to get it retuned because the ECU has learned around the unichip.

I don't know what they used now but they used to use unichips in the early days. After 500kms the ECU would self learn around the unichip and the car would lose a s**t of power. One of our senior members had one in his E series station wagon at the time. The thing went from 185kW to something stupidly low by the time he got home.

Use your standard cam, get the head, get the race series extractors, use a ballistic 100cpi hi flow cat and a 3" exhaust and use a xcal3 flash tuner.

$1600-race series head
$700/$1000-3" exhuast mild steel/stainless
$300-ballistic cat
$675-race series extractors
$1000/$1500-xcal3+tune

worst case scenario just over 5k, I'm a believer in most of their products, just not their cams or claimed power figures. I got my 157 rwkw for only $1500 and the car wasn't even tuned. Do a bit more research mate and you will be able to get more bang for your buck than mock can provide.

My opinion.

That's real good wouldn't mind seeing a dyno sheet for that. Who tuned it for you?
