   hey guys got over £3000 cummin my way in jan.... unsure what to do with my VTR either drop a vts engine in (tuned) or buy a clio 172....
   
   option 1:
   
   vts engine: fast road cams, port n polished head, gmc manifold, piper Exhaust system, decat, Remap ECU, induction kit enclosed.
   
   what sort of bhp we talkin here?
   
   option 2:
   
   2001 facelift clio sport 172
   
   which would be faster? engine conversion is the cheapest option so far!
   
   cheers guys

   depends if you like your saxo more than a clio?? a vts motor with the above mods will leave a clio sport, but you could mod a clio sport to alot more bhp

   Clio 172s are lovely mate. I think I'd get one of them. They are really quick, sound great and have lots of kit - leather, aircon etc.
