Hi everyone, hopefully getting my engine conversion done with cit tuning soon. Hadnt really thought of them until I saw their stand @ FCS `05!!!
The quality of work they do is fucking amazing like the turb`d c2 gt....warrp tish!
Anyhow my quote with cit tuning included a VTS g.box. But I have heard mixed VIEWS about keeping my 1.1 box strapped to the VTS lump. Anyone had experience with a 1.1 box on a VTS lump. Have heard its better lower down in the gears. Also want to throttle body it (instead of a turbo) at a later date, any thoughts????

Around £2k for a VTS lump with my own g.box and about £500 less for the 8 valver!
Not bad?!
