So i is english but live in the netherlands.

I own a saxo 1.4 8v VTS (not sure if it is different to the english 1.4 8v VTS??

It is rather tuned on the outside but moter wise slim, i have a green twister air filter and a laser back box with 3.4 inch open cut. Really want more tauqe and more horse power.

Anyone got any ideas as to what to what i should be doing next?? And where can i buy this stuff from?? (dont matter if it comes from another country coz my tuning company can import)

Cheers for the help

have a look at gmcmotorsport.co.uk

is you air filter an enclosed filter? if it isn't then i'd recommend buying one, a full exhaust system and a manifold. after that it's replacing the camshaft along with porting/polishing the cylinder head and remapping the ecu. this is where you have to decide if it's worth the money tuning a 1.4, or if you'd rather transplant a bigger engine (either 1.6 8v or 1.6 16v).

yeah me air filter is enclosed. One less thing to worry about

And i is not very technical any chance u can expamd on a full system exhaust?? I have the chance to buy a custom made (brand new from my garage ) left and right nack box with 4 inch upward cut?? does this have anything to do with that??

Over manifolds i tried to order on the other week but they said it was not passible with the raceland product, any ideas what i should choose then??

And what does it cost in england including fitting to have a full converstion to a 1.6 16v??

Cheers

have a look at gmcmotorsport.co.uk, they have very good technical explanations of all the products they sell as well as an in depth price list. they also carry out 1.6 16v conversions, which start at around £1200 (they supply the engine). hope this helps
