i need my mk2 vtr quicker?
 
alright people. sorry if i post this in the wrong place im new to this site.

i have got a mk2 2000 w reg saxo vtr (silver top 100bhp) its got a full stainless steel zorst system and a green cotton induction kit with air filter breathers but im starting to find it to slow i havnt got mega amounts to spend so whats the best thing to upgrade next?

cheers.

GMC or raceland manifold?
Cam it?

btw your saxo is not a 100bhp its 90 bhp as I have a W reg vtr aswell.models in 2001 onwards have the 98bhp engine.

ram effect induction maybe?
Manifold.
Cams.

cheech 20th April 2008 19:18

prob 4-2-1 manifold de cat and a remap would be the first i reckon!!!!

Vts/106 xsi gear box. Will make a noticable difference to acceleration.

dose it, how?

Single cam on a vtr.

285 profile is best suited to standard inlet/pistons. With a decent exhaust manifold, system, airfilter - add a cam with decent valve springs and vernier pulley, get a remap your looking at 120bhpish, maybe more maybe less.

VTS gear box has a taller final drive. Better aceleration yet reduced actual speed at rpm.

Xsi box has a even taller final drive.

Other way round - shorter boxes, higher rpm at speed!

Upgrade your brakes?
Strip the car lightweight wheels - power to weight is where its at!

VtsTom 20th April 2008 22:26

By taller i mean higher. The higher the number of the final drive, the shorter the ratios

Sean 20th April 2008 22:28

I wouldnt bother with any engine mods on a vtr, i'd fit bigger brakes and better suspension - that way if you upgrade to a vts you can take them with you, or revert to standard if you sell up and move on.

Always remember that there will come a point when modding the VTR (unless you specifically want 8v supercharged power) where it will be better to just buy a VTS if you can afford the insurance mate. Even a mildly cammed vtr will struggle to hit the 60 dash quicker than vts, and certainly the 0-100mph times.

sorry just have to say, ive got a Xreg 2000 mk2 vtr and ive got the 98bhp engine, some 2000 models rolled out with the 98bhp engine

i bet my vtr can beat a standard vtr to 60 and 100 ;) but i also bet a vts with half the amount of mods would beat me lmao

ill give you a run lol!

Narbar 21st April 2008 17:50

lmao ill give u a run but if thats your mod list in your sig then i doubt ill win yours!

AlexB 21st April 2008 18:25

lol exactly narbar

i think to get the power from a vtr get a 4 branch and a cam and remap
could maybe get some head work depending on the budget youve got

Narbar 21st April 2008 20:48

mines got all that, and more ;) :P

AlexB 21st April 2008 21:05

lend a had to the guy asking how to get power and tell him what your running then

tweed 21st April 2008 21:36

Why mod a VTR. Your gona spend money on cam, exhaust, induction and a remap for 130bhp. Why not sell and buy a vts get some breathing mods and have 130bhp.

saxokid100 21st April 2008 21:39

Get vts engine,and then modded it!!!.....
