They're a world of difference, having owned 3 VTS' previously, moving to my 182, and then getting another VTS...it's ridiculous. Not sure whether the 182 is a pearler of an engine, but it pulls harder in every gear without trying. VTS you have to literally plant it to get it going.

They're very rare in one sense, good ones just don't come up often! Inmolested GTi's and VTS' just never come up...

The system I had on my previous VTS was insane, the backfires and flames it spat out were ridiculous! Just by fitting the backbox earlier to the standard centre section, this pops and bangs more than the Clio with a full system. The SuperSprint really brings these to life, with a manifold and...

So, change of plans. The Saxsport I bought turned out to have a big crack in it, so I had a refund before it was posted (seller was breaking a friend of a friends car, and didn't know it was there). So I've now purchased a brand new decat-back non silenced centre section from KamRacing...

So a little update list to keep the thread up to date. Saxsport exhaust Bought Miltek 4-2-1 Manifold purchasing tonight hopefully! Exhaust gasket + Manifold gasket bought Polybushed exhaust mounts bought Manifold studs and nuts bought Hopefully all should be fitted this weekend presuming the...

This is my 4th VTS and third posi, I'm a greedy git!

Thanks for the comments guys. @Daz_RT_04 I'll bare that one in mind bud, cheers. New polybush exhaust mounts, exhaust gasket, and Chicken triple sandwich bought.

Saxsport should be here sometime next week along with either a Piper 4-1 manifold, or Miltek 4-2-1 depending on price/who gets back to me sooner. I'll be looking for the Simota enclosed induction kit with green cotton filter as I ran that on my previous S, good setup. As for the master cylinder...

It does indeed, I find it so cool! They're being swapped for a 266mm setup. Thought about the GTi6 283mm setup, but they're overkill unless you're pushing high power, 266mm will do lovely.

The price difference puts me off, and the Clio is pretty mint itself bar the bumper.

Can't say I've seen another on the road myself. It's a good egg, plenty of potential and plenty of things to come it's way. :)

All it would need for that is the VT kit re fitted! The car is pretty mint as it is now, but I wanted that as it's a good base to start off with. It's never seen an exhaust, air filter, never been sat on it's arse with a knackered axle. It's also rust free, which is stupidly hard to come by...

Sort of, the power seems to kick in (smoother than the 1*2's) around 4k imo.

VTS has the weight advantage of 930kg kurb weight iirc though!

They're virtually the same cars, both need to be revving high to get all the oomph. Clio has more torque lower down so it'll always win.

Well, ironically @josh11490 came up with me in his 182. Had a dabble on the way back and his just walked passed me. Bare in mind this VTS is completely stock, Josh's has air filter/full exhaust system, not much, but better over standard. My old VTS was stripped to the shell, and had a 4-2-1...

It changes often depending on the rust issue/general condition mate. I picked this up for £1100. I don't feel shy on stating that as it's got 84k genuine miles and has £1100 worth of receipts as I mentioned above. Mk2's, well put it this way, I've sold 3 for under £500 with full...

Few pics to keep the dust off my camera! The interior is stupidly clean, I may even go as far as cleaner than the 182! My dad said it would be a crying shame to strip it back and gut it.

Well that was bloody stupid of you! Cheers mate. Hoping progress will be rather fast paced as I've got a spare wad from getting the price knocked down!
