   Hello everyone.
   
   I have a Mk2 Saxo VTS, and looking for some advice before i purchase an induction kit and a cat-back exhaust.
   
   I'm looking for power gains and loudness basically.
   
   Can anyone recommend some systems? i have a tight budget so best value to power ratio would be awesome.
   
   I have a budget of about £30-£50 for an induction kit and £100-£200 for a cat-back exhaust system.
   
   Thanks in advance.

   Consider the Supersprint race backbox with cat back centre pipe

   Sorry to sound like a tit. But which bit is the resonator?
   I put the green panal filter on my Mk2 saxo vtr the other day (from Kam racing, does it make a lot of diff taking it off?

   behind the radiator, its basically all the piping and small boxes etc attached to the standard airbox system.
   
   I whipped it all off (took literally a minute) and put on a 73mm feed from the bottom of the box to the front fog lamp.
   
   There is other places to mount the feed, upto personal preference i guess.
   
   Hope that gives you some idea's?

   ta buddy.
   
   If im correct its to keep induction noise down, plays a fact in the cars emissions/mpg also at a guess?
   
   basically its a restriction in the system

    Seems like a good system, and decent website
    
    Does the exhaust replace the standard VTS with ease? as it's a centre pipe. And does it come with the necessary brackets etc?

    Sounds good, although i prefer the look of a new induction kit with cone etc.
    
    With that method, have you noticed sound and power increases?
    
    Thanks guys.

    with the supersprint centre you'd need to purchase the necessary clamps / gasket.
    
    Can point you in the right direction if needed. PM me

    It feels and revs abit more freely, not a huge difference as i expected.
    
    Goes well hand in hand with my supersprint system though
