lol hes after knowing what bhp model it is! i think its 98bhp, but then looking at the inlet i think its a 90bhp

[D34no]

it is a 2000 VTR i just mean which 1 is it coz there is a few different 1s and im trying to get a cam for it and they keep saying is it roller or non-roller and i dont know!lol

[CampDavid]

silvertop VTR at a guess,

Flog it and buy a VTS. Or a VTS with cams in like mine, which curiously is just about to come up for sale... :)

[mardon]

Not up on the VTR engine but I think he means is his a Black top or a silvertop 90 or 98 bhp. Apparently there are also 90bhp silvertops. As said i'm not well up on it so unfortunatly can'r help :-(

[CampDavid]

2000 is a roller rocker IIRC

[D34no]

just to add its got the single plug ecu!

[sy_VTR]

what bhp is it david a 98bhp, will a 2001 piper cam fit it! or are the 2000 and 2001 different

[D34no]

does any1 know if the cam out of the 2001 model will fit into my engine? its a piper 280 from a 98bhp silver top!

[Colin]

Thats a 90bhp, silvertop

[Steve]

if its a 1.6 then its a 90bhp without a doubt mate 100%
all single plugs are 90bhp!

[Tobs]

yh 2000reg 90bhp

[hesslevtr]

thats a 90 bhp model silver top

roller type

[VTS_16v_Boy]

I thought it worked like this

Black Top - 90bhp
Silver Top - 98bhp

[Ryan]

I thought it worked like this

Black Top - 90bhp
Silver Top - 98bhp


nope totally wrong :P

silvertops started in 99irc - 2001. black tops were the early engine.

so for example my 2000 model is a 90bhp silvertop

[VTS_16v_Boy]

Oooooh Sorry :oops:

I'll make a note of that for future ref so I dont get any incorrect advice on the matter.

Thanks Ryan

Wheres all the abuse for the wrong answer lol

[Colin]

S reg was the change over

[D34no]

so will a cam from the silver top 98bhp fit in a silver top 90bhp?

[D34no]

?????????????????

[williamsvts]

where is the cat?
under car = 90hp
manifold = 98hp

[blinksta]

this makes me wonder what my car is now! its a silver top with a different air box to the one in this picture and has cat under the car!!!

But, the ECU is not the same as this guys, so what does this make mine???

[D34no]

under the car m8
