   Hi
   I was just wanting your opinion, i am thinking of either tuning my vtr up or getting a vts coversion? I have seen GMC do a vts conversion for around £1200. So its either that or spend that money on tuning my vtr? But i am not really sure what to do?
   Thanks for any feedback.

   well I fancy doing the coversion as i am a apprentice JCB mechanic but want to get a bit experience on my car. Only thinking of the converision as i would loose that much money on my VTR (only had it a year). I have also got attached to the little beggar.

    tuning a vtr is fun but you'll soon get bored of it even tuned so just do the vts conversion and tune that
    
    i had a tuned vtr and got bored very quickly so i got a vts engine now i'm playing about with that,way more fun than a vtr
