View Full Version : Not a Saxo owner, but...

Hey folks. I'm Teddy, 19, Manchester.

I've been an owner of a Citroen C2 for two years now and I have just recently brought myself a new cheap run about as I've been wanting to track the car. Purely just as a hobby, an expensive one at that! But regardless, I'm on the site for the reason of I'm using the VTS engine... And obviously with Saxo's being around much longer than the C2's and Saxperience being an epically big community compared to the C2's, I was hoping I could have a few reads of other track projects purely for the specifications on the engine work.

I'm going to keep the car N/A and I'm contemplating the idea of Throttle Bodies. Obviously with other basic engine modifications such as cams and uprated internals etc.

So yeah, thanks for having me. I'll try not to get in the way.

Much love, Teddy.

Welcome fella.

Theres plenty of people with decent spec NA VTS engines.

You can get away without uprating the internals if you dont go too crazy. Newman ph3's or a similar cams (catcam 708s) with throttlebodies and a standalone ECU should see you some good gains (around 160 to 170bhp, dont get too hung up on figures though they mean nothing, in my opinion).

If you want more power than that then you'll have to start uprating internals and thats when it gets pricey. I'd use the money saved here and spunk it all on the gearbox, chassis, suspension, brakes and tyres instead of more power.
