   right i have done a search btu didnt find any answers. i have had my vtr for a year now, have viper induction kit, 4-2-1 manifold, supersprint race section, quickshift, fully stripped out. am really looking to get more power from it as i cant afford a vts yet.
   what is the best performance cam for a vtr. anything else i will need? prices altogether.

   mate there are enough thread like yours on here somewhere
   
   if not a simple list for you:
   piper 285 - 235
   valve springs to match - 40
   vernier pulley - 120
   remap on either std. ecu - 200-400
   (or standalone if you intend on doing more to it like throttle bodying!!) - 1000
   
   + labour if your notdoing it yourself!!

   did search but they all just say do a vts conversion. just cams and map should be good enough for another year until i can afford insurance on the vts.

   I presume you are declaring these mods? It'd probably bump the premium up to vts level if you do.

   what version of the VTR engine have you go?. Sure I could pick out a suitable catcam for you.
   
   Putting some catcams on the discount page so could get that on there too
