If ur thinking about getting one you have too !!!

I just got one last month (VTS) and went to Germany in it on the 2008 trip and now im back i cant wait until my next pay day to start throwing some money at it as there are so many things you can do to them to improve on them...

I would start with the things you have listed, see what you think and go from there matey but i would say its alright upgrading to get more power but dont forget about the stopping bit !!! Lol... (Breaks/Discs/Pads Upgrade)...

ok thanks , would a remap and kent cams full system exhaust , induction , get it near 140 mark ? , i need it quick as im driving a rover 25 with 1.8vvc 160bhp engine , and i wna upgrade not downgrade , thinkin of turboing it but always liked the look of a VTS slammed on its arse ! lol

cams and re-map exhaust induction kit should take it more then 140 - prob 150/160 bhp- and yeah they look the tits slammed :P:P

for that you should be looking at 150-160 bhp. u gota remember the saxo is light, also it always feels faster in a saxo.

how much is it for a re-map in birmingham area , and kent cams around 250? thats how much they were for my rover so would around that ? whats a good price for a vts these days im not fussed about high milage aslong as it aint in the 110,000 + . just want a nice and tidy one so i can start making progress on it .
