bhp?

[farmeraii]

i have a saxo vtr w reg how would i now if my engine is a 90bhp or 98 bhp help please? an ive fiteed a kn airfilter would that give me any extra bhp?

The late models with the cat in the down pipe and two O2 sensors are the 98bhp models. You can also spot them by there 3 plug ECU and/or there even spacing on there inlet port in the head. Induction kits can make a little difference but it is just likely a decrease as increase as some are aimed more at being noise then actually working well. I believe K&N do a cold ducted one that works quite well and a open kit that is not so great when everything warms up.

thanx mate is there a cheap way off gerrin my saxo to 110 bhp if its a 98 allready?

A cheap way? No...

You could strip it out...or buy a clio 182 with 182bhp lol

[-shuggles-]

Cheapest way would be to drop a vts engine into it:y: 120bhp give or take a few bhp straight out the box with more potential :y:

[ClumpyVtR]

Agreed and if its single plug its more than likely the 90bhp model - For an extra 10bhp for probably looking at a straight through manifold (raceland) or something like that with a decat + a decent air filter probably looking at 8-10bhp but to get anything else your probably looking at cams with a remap? Supercharged or a turbo? But as above said a vts engine has more potential but my VTR has straight through decat - panel filter - ph3 cams and remap and with the cams im getting alot more high end torque and power and will honestly do a VTS but if a VTS has done what ive done ill get left ;) So up to u and depends on the budget mate, hope that helps - merry xmas:bump:

If you get a 1.6 16v engine try and get one out of a krappy car like a 307 or something like that as they are in a stupidly low insurance group compared to a vts/106 gti so when you declare the engine to the insurers shouldn't be too expensive.

Also i wouldn't bother modding a VTR engine i've heard so many people go 'my vtr is stripped and cammed and beats vts' when in reality they just get left for dead..

Or get the engine out any car and tell them its out of a 'krappy 307' as theyre the same engine..

It wont beat will wont be far off.

Surely the engine number would give it away?

clio with 182 bhp? not standard then?? lol hahah

[AndySAXO]

clio's normal around the 160 bhp mark standard, one or two will be better but most are down on the reault quoted figures.

[RustySkull]

Single Plug are 90hp 3 plug are 98hp.

[hard_corejoeboy]

When driven properly they can make the quoted figure but the 182 is ps i believe and not bhp?

[AndySAXO]

when driven properly does this add bhp now?? and really no difference in ps and bhp 182 ps is aboutr 180 bhp so no difference, still over quoted.

[ClumpyVtR]

182 at the flywheel :)

[AndySAXO]

182 at the flywheel :)

thanks for that, i didnt know that well done :y: god please!!

[AndySAXO]

just so you know, i know they are quoted from the fly, and i saying they are normally about 160ish at the fly, some are better but most of the time they are off the quoted figures, nice cars, but just saying they are over quoted, and not as great as people make out, saxo will keep up with them on the track.

[hard_corejoeboy]

And on the road ;)

[danny-boi]

thanx mate is there a cheap way off gerrin my saxo to 110 bhp if its a 98 allready?

strip the whole car out and put a de cat in it. de cat gives roughly about 10bhp and the extra lightness will make it just as quick with less bhp :y:

[hard_corejoeboy]

Yes actually
