A lad on here sells these think his user name is spencer_cammedvts.
Send him a pm.
Also check the feedback on ebay, seems the majority are happy with the product.

I bought one of Spencer and can vouch for him that i could notice the car reved more freely and fell like it had a lil more pull in it than what it was before.

hi lads.
im unsure about mk2 vtr's as some of the mk2's have a plastic throttlebody. any questions just ask! ill allways give a reply!. mk1 vtr's are a deffinate yes and all vts throttle body's can be done.
yes i have had great feedback off all of these and all sax-p members have been very happy with the ones i have done for them too! Obviously im going to big them up but would never lie about the gains and difference it makes. its not fair on people. thats why im not claiming i can do the plastic throttlebodies. they havnt really got anything to bore off so it would be unfair to tell people that it will give them any gains!
All the best ,
Dan

please show dyno graph of before and after --on std car
I have had cars with these fitted on rollers and no actual increase in max power -all it does it make it more responsive/sudden over first few degrees of throttle application -if thats what you want then fine ,but don,t expect more total power

a mate of mine said that you recommended putting a samco elbow onto the raceland filter as it helps the airflow in the high revvs and it can help give you a couple of bhp extra.
i see where your coming from with this as it give a bigger smoother radius therefore its more flowing. port & polishing the throttlebody has the same kind of affect. its one less obstruction for the airflow! lots of little factors but it all helps!
yes it vastly improves throttle response but it also helps it rev more freely and pull a little better. im not claiming an overall bhp increase.

If you can't prove that something you're selling does what you say it does then you can't expect anyone to take you seriously. If you have proof then the extra sales generated by the proof will soon pay for the dyno tests.

word of mouth has proven good enough for me! also the excellent feedback on ebay from them has done the trick!
