i want more speed

[louis_23]

hi all, i aint to gud with my nolege on the performance side of things but want to make sum mods that will make my car faster, i own a 02 plate vtr, every thing so far is as standard performance wise. only mods i have had are a 60mm drop and stainless backbox. Thanx for any help guys :oops:

First thing is Sort out the Breathing.
So Get Raceland Green Induction Kit, or a BMC, from Kam-Racing.

Full exhaust system, so Raceland Manifold, and Supersprint centre section, and use your current backbox.

After that is Cams then Throttle Bodies. Or Boooooooost.

thanx bud if i do the 1st lot of things how much bhp will i gain?

[JC-Furio]

Exhaust/Induction kit won't rack up that much BHP. 10/12 at the max i guess?

Induction just gives a better throttle response really.

jst bin looking at the super sprint center pipes, whats the difference with race only and the normal one? witch should i get?

[Scattle]

As above 10ish max. If you don't use the back seats much, strip the car, makes hella difference and Free mod as such.

Depends where your cat is and if you want to de-cat or keep the cat in.

Race only is straight from manifold -> backbox. Normal one is cat back, so from cat -> backbox.

one supersprint pipe is just a straight through (no catylytic converter or silencers) other one has one silencer and its cat back iirc

thanx for ya help lads, my cat on my down pipe cuz it an o2 plate. so ill be ok with the race one.

ONE MORE THING! my bird drives a seat ibiza 1.4 16v sport when we wer drivin on the motorway once we had a lil race, imature i know but we wanid to compaire the dif in speed from a 1.4 16v to my 1.6 8v, and to be onest wernt much difference untill we reached over 60mph. i know my car being 6yrs old has prob lost alot of bhp n hers being bran new dnt help, ha hence reson for waning more speed. how much bhp do you think the cars lost over last 6yrs

[Scattle]

You will have to get a manifold to decat the car as such.

[louis_23]

Yeah ill prob do that 2 eventually. defo gunna get that center pipe soon tho cuz had a new silencer put on a few months ago and they've fitted it rong i think cuz my bk box or summin seems to be grinding on the drive shaft, sound fuckin horible, a constent scraping noise, the garage said afta ent the problem its because ive had a back box that ent a standard saxo bk box. wont be using them again

Wouldn't have thought it would lose too much, if anything... get it rolling roaded :y:

[littleracer]

just buy my vtr engine tbh and you will flyyyyyy

[louis_23]

whys your vtr engien so fast then? ha ha dose the fact that ive had a 60mm drop decrease performance?

[Dez]

first off all save the pennies and do a vts conversion, then look at getting new manifold etc.

Depends what your budget is really mate, probs best to post that up first and then people can work around your budget

[4775james]
