   Has anyone had this done to their VTS? what kind of gains am i likely to get?
   
   What would this be like compared to come 708 cams? apart from the price (been told around £150 for chip)

   Avoid chips like the plague, go for a live remap instead, it is tailered to your individual car then

   Thinking along the lines of a CDA Carbon Induction Kit, 4-2-1, De-Cat and a Magnex Backbox

   If you are waiting to insure it, don't forget that engine mods will up the insurance!
