HI guys, have a standard VTS, well pretty much. Viper induction and 2 4.5" side exit exhausts. 63k on the clock and its a 98 vers. Iv just bought it, love her to pieces. What can i do to squeeze some more stallions out the old gal. Hoping in a year or so to take her to hi-torq for a 230bhp s/charged engine build but in the meantime, any ideas on the bits and bobs i can do,

Cheers folks

I'm affraid you've probably squeezed all you can squeeze out of it without spending a sh1tload. Best thing to do now is get it lighter - strip out rear seats/trim etc. Stick some good tyres on it and paradoxically stick some better/bigger brakes on it enabling you to brake later! wink
They say the first thing you should do to make a car quicker is put better brakes on it.

Ditch the twin 4.5 inch exhausts and get a 2 inch pugsport for a start!

Look through the first couple of pages of this french bred bit, a couple of people have asked very similar questions recenty.
