hey just wandering what bhp does the mk1 vts have compared to the mk2 vts? and whats the difference in torque? i heard that the mrk1 vts is higher on both
mk1 or mk2
-
#1
-
#2Both identical mate, only difference is the later MK2s have a three plug ECU instead of a 1 plug ECU the MK1 and early MK2 come with, apparently if you do some reasonably high end tuning like uprated cams and a remap, the 1 plugs gain more power, but only by 5-10 brake
-
#3both the same.
only difference is new vts after late 2000 i think had 3 plug ecu -
#4ok cheers guys. so both would have exactly the same outputs then
-
#5standard yes
-
#6real men must also paint there nails you homo

as said above early engine has 1 plug ecu and later has 3 plug ecu with an egr valve, all something to do with emmission laws that come into place
early mark2's came with the single plug engine, till around 2001 i think -
#9not all mk2's have 98. some have the phase 2 engine, only the phase 3 engines have 98bhp. thats on vtrs.
-
#10i thought the mk2 was 100?
-
#11nah 98 read faq in performance section dont spam the tread sorry for the hijack
-
#12the later vts's also have a EGR valve (Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve) sorry about the spelling but they all have the same power which is 120 bhp
-
#13ibe heard the mark 1 bts are faster 0 - 60 due to a value restricting the engine? unsure whether this is true or not as never had a vts!
