   ii not long bought a 1998 VTR.. still having trouble with the revs
   they always missing...and now and then when ii come to a stop the
   car cuts out but apart from that lol..
   
   ii added a BACK BOX & KnN induction kit to it..
   is there anything else around them prices ii could add to my VTR to
   IMPROVE the speed & soundof my car
   
   Thanks guys

   have you thought it could be fucked if its cutting out??
   id say look into whats wrong with it before tuning it further
   
   even simple things car cause a loss of power
   
   any other symptoms than cutting out?
