   Hiya. Im new to the Saxo world.
   
   I was just wondering how well does the VTR(100bhp version) respond to engine tuning? Like headwork, tubular manifold, exhaust system etc etc.
   
   Would I get decent gains by getting some of the above done or is it not really worth it.
   
   Cheers

   it does respond well, just not as well as the vts
   
   but with headwork, cam, manifold, exhaust, enclosed filter and dastek it should be knocking on 130 odd bhp maybe more?

   Thats quite a nice gain. Im going to be keeping the VTR for a good 3-4 years so Ill have plenty of time to get lots done

   Alright matey.
   Not done anything to it yet because Ive only had it for 3 days I dont plan on doing too much to it for the first year anyways.. Im just going to get a nice sound system, sat nav, an Origin B2 radar detector and I may get some 16s and lower it a tad.
