   VTS on 1.1 box. pulls ok till bout 100mph then just sort of doesnt bother anymore. Its as though its given up and just steadily creeps up, but then really does pack in around 115-120
   
   This sound strange or normal? Dont think anything is wrong, however i would have though VTS power would just fly through a 1.1 box ratio's?
   
   cheers

   sounds normal. top speed is about right too. that's the trade-off with the 1.1 box which is only just shorter than the vts box- quicker acceleration but lower top end.

   Same on mine VTR with 1.1 box
   
   Shit on fuel as well
   
   Worth the change for me though as the VTR ratios took the piss at times.

   I hope you use the term FAST AS FUCK very loosely
   
   I know i wouldnt spend the time and money with that spec and not use it.
   
   TIP - No need for nitrous who needs to drive fast
