    Hi there , just wanna know if you could run a single plug vtr with a vts ecu???!! its not that i have too much time on my hands it that i have problems when it gets to 5k it gets all slow and doesnt rev out as it should do. i thought if the vts ecu would work it may take the limiter upto 7200 or watever it is??????

    No mate, it wont work, it wont rev to 7200, it should rev to just over 6, still sounds like you have a problem though!!

    Does it do it everytime?
    What engine mods you have? if any?

    Damm!! it will eventually get to about 6 but it almost sounds like its starved of fuel and there is no limit noise? it was remapped at motoscope a few years back and spoke to them and they said if anything the limit would be more than standard? crank sensor? fuel pump?

    doubt it'll be the crank sensor or the fuel pump mate, injetcors possibly!? Wouldn't help to change these!

    never heard of meagne injectors going on a saxo, i'd try replacing yours first, or having your properly cleaned and reconditioned

    i had the exact same problem on my vts.
    after 6 k it went dead and just went mmmmmm on the limiter. no bouncing.,

    try looking for a crack / hole on the inlet manifold. thats what it was on mine.

    if thats helps?
