   Is this engine the same as the vts engine? I no the rocker is different but would the engine fit in a saxo with saxo mounts? Just a random thought.

   Pretty sure thats the TU5JP4 engine?
   
   If it is then yes it does fit, also has bigger inlet valves. Your better putting a vts cam in it though.
   
   Correct me if im wrong

   Same as a C2 Vts - later version of the engine than fitted to the Saxo.
   Often in a lower spec of tune.

   Identical to C2 VTr 110hp, but with saxo inlet (you have to change this), saxo exhaust and saxo management should bump up to around 120-125hp. Or atleast thats going from my experience of them. You need to swap the cambelt covers (along with belt tensioner) and sump aswell and need to fit a VTS driver side mounting block. They are a little bit annoying though as the new ones don't have the pre-tapped oil pressure guage hole so you have to use a sandwich plate for it.
