what do you think is the best buy a superchip or a manifold with a sports cat?
how much bhp does a superchip give and how much will a manifold with sports cat give for a vtr?

superchip is cheaper because the manifold is 395 pounds from cituning, i think around 6 bhp from the chip and 5 from the manifold

super chips suck the big one mate,

get the manifold.

A super chip is mapped for a standard car without any mods and has been known to cause pinking.

If your looking for a chip wiht further mods in mind then get a dastek as it can be remapped time and again to suit

Defo get a manifold and a de-cat!
You will gain as much HP and torque as the chip, maybe even more. And the manifold and de-cat will give an extra sporty sound to the car. smileys/smiley2.gif
