vts turbo - s1 box too short?

  1. #1
    hi all , just wanted to see what people thought. my turbo project is nearly complete , at the last stages now. i still have my s1 rallye box on and was wondering if i will need to go back to the longer vts box or linger still the vtr box. would the s1 be too short ? the spec it should be running 170- 180 bhp.
    thanks

    id say your on the limit depending on what you use the car for..

    due to the torque you would be wheelspinning in the first few gears and on any descent straight you will be on the limiter.

    As above, I'd expect quite a lot of wheelspin. S2 Rallye/ VTS, or maybe a 1.4 XSI box would be better suited?

    mate i personally get rid of the box pm sean_vts first
    Then run a mint vtr or vts box ideally vtr
