buy my vts, you can get it cammed and if needed throttle bodied properlly for around £1.5k-£2k tops mapped and ready to go,

and i garentee not much will challenge it with the right driver, 200bhp n/a in a saxo is very FUN lol,

the car wants nothing so if you bought it, money can go into mods straight away

Bet you can slap some good engines in the MX5, remember seeing a yank drop a hemy in there. Not exactly good but big!

I'm the forums only communist.

The Civic EP3 standard did 14.5 sec 1/4 mile time didn't it?

I remember when Eatthis posted that video in another thread before he said he struggled to get the power down and almost lost to the other car until the tyres gripped.

working from memory about 2.2-2.3 it was down on power that day due to belt slip (approx 280 hp) it was also red hot and i had no ic etc so heatsoak comes into it too
the gearing on the vr6 is approaching a diesel 4th gear is the same ratio as 6th on a ctr i was changing to 4th JUST before the line
