how much it costing you and does it have warranty?

they have a unlimited millage 1 year warranty i think they quoted £475 +vat for a vtr box

[steve01536]

noice :)

[adam661]

but ive decide 2 get a 106 s2 rallye box insted but not rang back 4 a price but shud be the same hopefully :)

[steve01536]

are they a straight fit then ? all the sensors and that the same ? what sorta gains can i get from the s2?

[adam661]

yeh as far as i no ive posted up on here about it and they are a straight swap as the S2 it a 1.6 8v. the gains are lower ratio gears so improved acceleration but you will lose at the top end (will max at around 115) you could get a vts box which will still give u quicker acceleration but not quite as much as the S2 but a bit higher top speed around 126 i think

[steve01536]

cheers bud ill look into it

[adam661]

if your looking for all out acceleration i would go 4 a 106 S1 box out the 1.3 rallye would be rapido but probs onli do 100 lol hope that helps theres a gear box ratios guide on here somwhere 2 :)

[steve01536]

need a bit of both really lol although theres only need to go to 70 ;) lol
