PERFORMance

[AJ_SAXO]

rite boys and gals...i have a vtr and want to increase its performance!!

Im thinking of super charging it in the near future but for the time bein I was just wondering if u lot have any suggestions on what I should do to it??

The previous owner said that its been SuperChipped, how do I know if it has? and not a sh*t ebay job?

Also is there anywhere in the South Central area that i can go to get performance parts?

Thanks

if your going toput money into supercharging it at least drop a vts lump in it as will have much more potential!

Look at breating mods mate, think about a good panel filter (bmc/green/itg), a good exhaust system (supersprint race/piper) and a good manifold (supersprint/raceland/piper/janspeed) and will pretty much sort you out for breathing mods and you should see some extra gains from doing that. The supersprint race centre will decat your car if you dont have the engine with the catalyst in the manifold. If you do have it in the manifold, switching to a new manifold will in turn decat your car also. This is good for power gains.

I would also consider stripping out the car, less weight = better acceleration. Alot of weight can be stripped from a saxo in both the front and rear if your willing to sacrifice quiet driving. To be honest i dont even think its that bad when its done, i mean yeh yeh its noisy but would you rather go quicker for less or wouldnt you?

Another advantage as covered many times before lol is that by stripping out "excess" weight you also make for better handling, fuel economy and feel of the car. Personally i love it. Alot of guys will be like "oh its not worth it" and "blah da blah da blah yakety YAK", i wouldnt let this put you off from trying it though, you will see a difference.

If you have the know how and a spare 400-500 notes you could just drop in a VTS lump and go down that route. Its pretty easy, everything pretty much fits in place without too much hassle. This makes for a big difference in power for obvious reasons and for £400 i dont think you could go quicker for less.

Wouldnt bother supercharging either, if your serious get it turbo'd.

turbo

ta for all that boys!! I will bare all that in mind

[AJ_SAXO]

like i said in the 1st post how do I find out if my car has been SuperChipped??
and also would it be worh it to go down the camms route??

[DanT]

Fitting a cam to a vtr is worth it imo. People will say just fit a vts. You have to decide whether you like the 8v or you like the 16v and then modify accordling. If your going to turbo, fit a performance cam as well.

A cam on an 8v will come into its own with a set of throttle bodies.
