as said, what is the highest bhp figures that have been achieved tuning vtrs and vts' i know you can get some sizeable numbers from the s but what is the most?
what is the highest bhp achieved in vtr nd s
-
#1
-
#2500+ is the most i have seen from a member onhere from turkey, can not remember his name though.
He is also on youtube. -
#3NA or boosted.
-
#4someone posted this the other day mate try searching for it. someone had a 380hp vts or sumat daft like that. someone in a rover wrote it off i think
-
#5321 saxo daffy ^^
best ive seen is deans 106gti
370 at the wheels
well over 400 at fly -
#6sorry mate didn realise lol lost laptop for a week when it was f*cked, and as for na or bossted id say boosted because im after the highest of all and no way would you be near with an na engine,
-
#7there a vts turbo on ebay thats claiming 400bhp, whether it is or not is another matter but i know those figures are quite achievable
-
#8i think those two are turboed mate but correct me if im wrong
-
#9gouldy yes daffys was and deans is turboed
-
#10that white saxo from blackpool was something else! i saw it in a few different videos and read the lads progress thread from start to finish and i was well impressed. i was gutted for the lad when someone crashed into him and wrote it off. someone in a rover pissed or something wasnt it?
-
#11Personally i like the saxo S1600 Rally car.
220Bhp, N/A.
Really Impressive Figures. -
#12a 500+bhp saxo sounds nice like haha, must of had sum canny driveshafts with those figures
-
#13Also i know a lad with a 1.8 VTR Turbo.
Fitted with a stroker kit, around 230/240Bhp.
Check it out on youtube, put in 'saxo turbo stroker'
Lush! -
#14how many people have got the stroker kits and are they reliable? seem like a canny upgrade imo, not cheap of course but then again what is these days
-
#15i havent seen any other saxo with a stroker kit bar the lad i know, expensive but worth it.
Check this blokes thread for a big spec saxo turbo. Nothing missed - Amazing!

#16look up saxmad88
black 106 gti turbo

and gouldy your refering to saxo daffys vts
and yes a uy in a rover wrote it off -
#17i would actually cry if someone in a rover crashed into my car!
-
#18thats an amazin car i want it hahha
-
#19Was considering the 1.8 stroker kit with forged crank, it is expensive but i'd imagine very worth while!Quote:how many people have got the stroker kits and are they reliable? seem like a canny upgrade imo, not cheap of course but then again what is these days
There is a boosted vtr on here in an ax shell running close to the 300 figure - pretty impressive for an 8v
-
#20definatley is like, imagine the looks on peoples faces whov got decent size engined cars that get licked off it haha
-
#21boosted ax is gonna have morepower soon when martins done
-
#22sounds good, very very light.
will be nice to see.
500posts - whoop lol -
#23Seems to me that at a certain point its how well u can get the power down more than the barry big time bhp figuire does it not?
-
#24depends its not just about biggest bhp.
boosted seems to be who doesnt blow the shit out of the gearboxes,
and NA its who has the money to afford a gearbox that is capable of getting the nest out of a very peaky engine -
#25My VTS has got the standard 1.6 16v VTS engine, wossner pistons and h-beam rods, camms, turbo, quamist water injection, and a few other bits and pieces in there and when it was first RR after the conversion, it RR'd 298.4bhp. It was RR 247 when I bought it- turned out to have a dodgy compression on first 2 cyclinders so Ive had it rebuilt. So It will be somewhere between those figures once its finished.
Ive heard of VTS' pushing out 400bhp+, but ive never actually seen any over the 300 mark in the flesh. -
#26personally i wouldnt want a 500bhp saxo, you wouldnt be able to get it all down off the line, id say 200bhp and a decent suspension and brake setup to be faster than most things. mate its not all about outline power figures, you need to uprate a lot of other things aswell.

Agree
To be honest even just over 200bhp at the wheels is frightening. You have so much power spare you can quite happily to a rolling burnout as if you were stood still at 60mph. You have so much power to spare that you will hit the rev limiter in 5th on the standard in no time and be doing over 140mph in need of another gear. However these cars really don't handle at these speeds. They start wanting to fly. Swap the box out and over 150mph is easily achievable though I would not recommend trying it unless you have a half mile wide runway to try it on. These cars a so lights and have quite low drag that you don't need much power to make them go fast.
-
#29Totally agree mate. As said, mines in the region of 250 and 300 and thats more than enough in a car like a saxo. Bit over the top really lol. But it is nice to have that power sitting there lolQuote:personally i wouldnt want a 500bhp saxo, you wouldnt be able to get it all down off the line, id say 200bhp and a decent suspension and brake setup to be faster than most things. mate its not all about outline power figures, you need to uprate a lot of other things aswell.

#30haha im not sayin big bhp is the way forward, id be over the moon with a vts pushin around 160, was just a thread to ask how much power can be had from the tu, tbh 500=bhp in a saxo an your gune need wings and airbrakes hahaha
-
#31i've seen about 450bhp in pfcm, a greek 106 running something like low 11 second quaters@160mph roughly. looks standard apart from the bus intercooler hanging out the front where the grille and bumper used to be.
-
#32Ive got plans for 1000 BHP, just gotta work out how im going to fit this bloody Veyron engine in my car!
-
#33theres a bloke on here thats got 150bhp ish from a 1.4...
spent well over 30k so he says -
#34foggys is a competition car though
-
#35id say thats an insane amount of money to spend on a 1.4 but then if its a competition car needs may be lol
