nice, your car rattles more then mine , im gonna take all the plastic trim off the boot cus its starting to really get to me lol , acceleration seems standard to be honest, counted about 9.5 seconds allowing the bad start , have you had your car mapped after the cam was fitted?

Forgot how long the VTR box is lol Get a shorter gearbox on there then you will see a nice improvement...

bugger for me that feels pretty quick and it does rev freely to me ... well compaired to my mates standard one,
Its not been mapped since the cam but has uprated injectors and fuel pump, also strait through exhaust, custom air intake, the newman cam ported and polished throttle body and head, suppersprint 4-2-1..... i'l make a different video maybe i did somthing wrong lol

Like I said, consider a shorter gear box to make the most of the cams and definantly think about mapping them too

I've looked into getting them mapped but i've been told it's pointless, the larger injectors that i've fitted compensate for the lack of the map, the only thing i've bin told to do would get the rev limiter upped a bit to get the full power range of the cams.
I reckon the gearbox is a good idea though but dammit that's gna kill my already not so good fuel consumption.....
it anoys me cuz to me it seems dammned fast, and i've got a mate who owns a VTS who's driven it and he told me it was quick maybe he was taking the piss lol

If you want the best from the car --then fit a stand alone ,then it can be maped to suit mods you have now and any you do in the future and will give best economy as well

Which standalone would you recomend and what would be the cost ?
( thinking of going 16v + turbo later ) so .....
I dunno i really thaught my VTR faired well for power .... makes me realise that all my mates 16v things are slow as fook then .... ( mostly french shit btw )
but because it has a 16v badge they think its quick as fook.
i'm some what disapointed now lmfao
