No boost but keeping the Vtr engine - It will always be slow. Sorry. Without boost, next best will be 16v conversion and ITBs.
Next question?

Fair play. Do you have the resistor mod already then? I'm saving up for it.

170 Na in an ax would go well indeed. Why was that setup chosen? Class regs? For the money it must have cost!

Exactly the point, the money you spend getting an 8v go be quick, you could make a bigger engine go the same much cheaper. Hence "pissing in the wind"

8v is really only used for motorsport now because of certain class regs or to prove a point...
