   it's the shortest 'box so faster acceleration but it screams a bit on the motorway

    speak to tam (axo16v) on ssc or try find-a-part, vts boxes are quite easy to find, easier than the rallye box anyway. vts box is fine for a cammed vts, not sure why you would think the vtr box would compliment it more.
