interesting..... Who thinks? VTS question

[GSMotorsport]

1 VTS standard engine....

£1000 to spend....

What are the most efficient and best mods to buy to get this engine to perform well?

[Smithy]

Would have to be the usual suspects i would think:

Enclosed filter, exhaust, cams and dastek re-map.

Shudnt u b tellin us guv?? Hehe.

I wuda sed full xzorst n enclosed induction n mayb a re-map. Nt sure on the cams, depends on wot u wanna use it for i spose.. smileys/smiley5.gif

[DOGGS]

takin into consideration that ur suppliers give u everythin trade....Enclosed filter (£180) , exhaust (full powerflow custom system = £250 (depending on what backbox/s u want), cams(£200), manifold(£230), de-cat (£50)...dunno if the change from this will get u a dastek remap ;o

[Smithy]

Wouldn't have powerflow, would have either GMC btb or magnex with decat.

[dannsax]

well if you want something out of the box i would definitley look into throttle boodies . can be money friendly , but will see a high gain in power , talking 130bhp's for 250 ;D

Shudnt u b tellin us guv?? Hehe.


I never pretend to know EVERYTHING ;) Always open to advice smileys/smiley4.gif

... So we are thinking:



BMC enclosed
BTB manifold
Full exhaust system
ecu remap (from janspeed)

Cams and throttle bodies would be way over budget really...

what about an ashley ehaust, i just fitted 1 to my vts , as i did not like the magnex and there is a deffenate differance between the 2 , i know ashley are mild steel, but i painted it and it should last a few year and the whole system inc decat was only £225, works great with my 4-1 , and procomp

[SaxoAL]

whats that , you got a procomp induction kit, they any good? How much that cost ya mate , and any idea if they do one for the 1.4 westcoast?

[muly]

i bought the procomp second hand for a bargain £150 and it works great, was very impressed when i put that on, i know they do one for a vtr , which should fit the westcoast

[SaxoAL]

yeh , i was thinkin that , but speakin to BMC yesterday , their CDA induction is different for the VTR and the westcoast . now i cant see why ?!

[muly]

yeah mate i would think it would fir or easily be modded to fit, i used to have a green enclosed kit on my vts and my mate got that to fit his vtr with a little work

[SaxoAL]

yeh , worth looking into
