vtr ans vts exhaust compatibility ?

16th August 2006, 00:42

When doing the conversion from my vtr (cat under car) phase 1, to phase 1 vts, i will be getting the vts manifold, but nothing else exhaust wise, will my vtr cat, backbox, and centre box mate to the vts manifold? I sure hope so

also i dont know if im getting such a thing as a downpipe with the vts engine and manifold, take it id need this too? O am i talking crap?

I have no experience with this atall so don't take this as gospel, but one is 8v the other is 16v so both have different engine characteristics, if I had to guess I'd say no, although I'm probably wrong!

I used my VTR exhaust on a VTS manifold and downpipe although It was a raceland however the standard vts one would have fitted if I'd used it.

Does anyone know if there's a difference between a mk1 and mk2 manifold apart from the cat?

looking at fitting an o2 mk2 vts manifold to a a mk1 t reg vts.

my vtr exhaust went onto the standard vts manifold when i did my conversion mate that was mk1 to mk1

They all interchange I've got a Mk2 VTS full s/s on a 98bhp VTR i needed the Mk1 De-cat pipe to join though.

So YES your vtr cat, backbox, and centre box mate to the vts manifold
