    Hi guys does anyone know if there is a shorter oil filter for the saxo vtr as I bought a exhaust and it seems to not fit but hits the oil filter, painted it and put the gasket on the middle of the new pipe work before I tried it "like a twonk" last guy who had it said it came of a vtr but I'm not 100% sure, filters about 8cm long maybe a little more due to the ball type shame at the end.

    I've never seen an exhaust manifold for a VTR like that before.

    I'd put my bets on it being off a 3 plug ECU VTR with the plastic oil filter (which is in an entirely different place) as I notice there are holes for 2 lambda sensors. of course your car will only have one.

    Correct it does only have one and it is a 3plug ecu I believe, could I put the oil filter and the part that moves it across on I could couldn't I?

    maybe a renault 5 oil filter which is only half the length of saxo will solve the problem
    not a simple job to retro fit later type oil filter assembly to old style block

    Thanks for the help dude, Hopefully it'll sort it out, Did you turbo it yourself or pay a company to do it?

    All myself bud, if thinking of doing it create a rough budget and double it lol

    Also ask for help, there is no shame in it and it makes it 10x easier than struggling to work things out yourself
