What BHP did you get out of it?
A AX GTi came out the factory with 100bhp so I'd estimate 110bhp, and yeah they do weigh f00k all! If I ever have a mishap in the Saxo, I'd get an AX to stick the engine in

Why is the Mk1 VTS easier to tune? If he means single plug ECUs are less tempter mental then yes.

110bhp can be got from:

Enclosed induction kit
Manifold
Full exhaust

I know as I have that spec and got 113bhp on a RR which I took with a pinch of salt.....,

Pinch of salt you say... thats why you've metioned it in your Avatar bit?! Just messing dude.


I thought about getting a VTR, better MPG and cheaper insurance. Then I got quotes for both a VTR and VTS, £225 for a VTR or £265 for a VTS, so I thought may as well get the nippier one, slighty safer one. Really glad I did now.

Whats a raspy system/mani then guys?

I've just paid my insurance off in the VTR for the year so decided i'll keep it for 10 months.

I'll be approaching 21 this time next year so insurance on high powered cars shouldnt be that much of an issue!

110bhp is easy to get out of a VTR I reckon I could get over 120bhp using PSA parts no problems and cost less than £500 to

I've been hearing good things about superspint systems and how they are raspy?

Do I need a center section?
