[mikey1]

hi guys i am going to be swapping my vtr engine with a vts engine could you tell me the best mods to do whilst the engine is out and what would be the optimal power from it. how could i get it to around 140-150 bhp if poss more ;)

[mikey1]

its a mk1 to let you know cheers

[J222JRA]

it all depends on your budget mate

[mikey1]

to start with could do with it bein relatively cheap well under a 1000 thinking cams but not sure after that

[raunchz]

How longs a piece of string ........

Turbo , Supercharged , Cams , Throttld Bodies , Nitrous

140-150bhp your looking at cams/remap and breathing mods ./exhaust.

[Finchowned]

PH3 Newmans or similair, decent breathing mods and a remap should see 145-150Bhp+

[mikey1]

okies i will be gettin a green enclosed induction kit 4-2-1 manifold inc de-cat and will get wild fast road cam from katcams and will get it remapped

[mikey1]

will be stripping rear seats and carpets to save weight see what gains i get then should be great once i get the conversion finished cant wait been dying to get into a 16v lol

[mikey1]

bump....

[Finchowned]

Raceland manifold, Magnex de-cat exhaust, panel filter, PH3 newmans and a decent remap. And that's the engine sorted.

Lose the spare wheel, lose any sound deadning you don't want/need, lose the rear wiper. Save about 25kg.

What you bumping for matey? Just as has been said, you need full breathing mods, and uprated cams such as catcams 708s, all are best to fit during the conversion :)

my apologies was dying to get to 100 posts lol my first bench mark thanks for your help

[mikey1]

would a panel filter be better than a closed air induction kit?

[Finchowned]

Lol, damn spammers.

General consensus is that a panel filter (K&N or Green) and a basic cold air feed set up to the standard airbox is a very good set up.

ok thanks for all of you help and i will not bump again lol once again my appologies :( but thanks for the advice guys this will help me an awful lot to getting a good start to my vts does anyone know of a link to fitting guide for an engine conversion i know just about all i need to know just wondered if there was something to make sure i was on the right track incase i get something wrong lol
