Vts Cylinder head + c2 inlet

  1. #1
    Is there any modifications to fitting the c2 inlet to a vts cylinder head? or is it a straight fit on?


    cheers.

    you need to drill and tap the 2 end bolt points as the ones on the head dont line up

    may aswell get the c2 head aswell for the bigger valves and transfer your cams to the C2 head,

    cheers.
    What does it even do like does it give much gain when you put the c2 inlet on?

    Want to make a start really on my new project. Will a c2 head fit straight onto a j4 block? I've juts read about the c2 vts has bigger valves thanks though. Cams fit straight in I presume? At least theres no messing around adapting the c2 inlet as i will be running some pretty high pressure through it.

    I did spot the c2 vts engine into a Saxo guide on here. But I'm thinking the c2 engine will be more expensive + I need to install forgies. So i think vts j4 block and loom and ancillaries will be bought, then rebuilt forged, then c2 head slapped on with turbo cams and c2 inlet. What you think? Highlight any problems I may come across.

    Plastic inlets can get blown to bits, the c2 inlet is alloy so is stronger, may have slightly larger tb not sure. I would of used the s1 inlet I have but they don't fit vts engines. Not sure on gain wouldn't of thought would be much. So c2 inlet it is.

    what the story with these c2 inlets will they make much difference on an 16v im just looking to get big bhp with out killing it ive been looking at alloy rads and throttle bodies with high lift cams but what else should i do

    you will need an adapter plate and a different throttle aswell as saxo is cable throttle and c2 is fly by wire.

    you will need to drill the extra holes in the centre at the topof the manifold --same as a j4 ,as the c2 vts does not have any studs at the top +centre .
    it is a known problem on cts vts for the manifold to break the studs --head was designed for a lightweight plastic manifold .
    so even using a jp4 head it is necc to drill the holes in the center same as for a j4 head -
    and if you used boost it would definately blow
    extra powr on std j4 engine using c2 inlet will be very minimal if any,if thats all you are changing
