Depends who does it.

A Garage will charge a fortune most likely.

You can go to specialists EG Manic Motors who usually charge about £500+Parts

Or If you can get a member off here to do it, some do it for around £250-300 + Parts

By Parts I mean Engine + all ancilliaries which is about £300-400 on a VTS Engine.

Have you ever actually searched "VTS Conversion"? Why don't you try it, and see how much "useful information" you can find.

TBH mate, the search function is practically useless until it's updated to search for phrasing, rather than just keywords.

Instead of telling people to "search", why not just answer there question, it's not fucking hard.

because i dont know the answer so dont be a dick :S theres plenty of people on here that know plenty of useful information its not hard to find a thread on someone doing it, a bit of searching isnt hard once in a while.

yeh mate, but people dont need others telling them to search, when it will take ages for them to find it, as stated, search functions are not so good, cos people post nothing but shite on these sites,

if sum1 knows, its better to be told, as said, manic, trac prep, these are the cheaper companies, pug10ff, and frenchsport etc want 1500 plus vat, for something that takes a day with 2 men,

there are people on the site who will do it for 6-700 and thats supplied and fitted,

in my honest opinion, if you dont do the conversion yourself it will prob cost you the same as actually bying a VTS with labour, parts + bits n bats ect it all adds up!
