Default vts conversion...

I have an r reg vtr, would a vts lump fit straight in on the exsisting loom or would i have to change it? And a rough estimate on price to do so? Ive done a search bur couldnt find much. Any links and advice would be apreciated. Thanks.

if your thing turbo supercharging, wouldt bother with the cams, cams can be quite easyly fitted once in the engines in the car. but you should also replace followers (192quid), and you will need a remap... not as cheap as 350 quid for cams stick em in and go.
