induction kits

hi i have a 98 saxo vtr and i currently have a pipercross induction kit on it but im looking for a change i want something like the ecosse forced inductions, but im a little bit confused as i can only find them for vts, my induction kit has to alloy pipes coming from the shaft where a rubber pipe goes and the other pipe goes to the head
my question is if u buy a vts kit can it be modified to fit a vtr? if not what sort of induction kit do i look for links would be great also

no they dont.

procomps dont fit different model
the vts version only fits the vts due to the rad.

some dont fit westies.

i just got a little bit confused when i seen that my engine has 2 pipes that go to the filter and some of the filter that i have seen only have a part on the shaft for one pipe, but my good buddy is handy with a welder so it shouldnt be much trouble to chop off one of the parts off my pipercross and get it welded on to the new filter should it

yes they do mate, any induction kit will fit any car with the right "mods" (and by mods i mean a piece of silicon and a jubilee clip usually) and thats a fact matey!

put a pic up mate, cause im not understanding what your on about, you don't need to get as drastic as welding bits and bobs to make an induction kit fit!

try and get my green cotton to fit onto my slam panel flush with a piece of silicon and a jubilee clip! i'll re-connect where the power steering fluid goes, 2 rules, you can't move that or where you put water into the radiator

i'll give you £30 if you can

id hardly call changing the radiator a small mod!

the VTS procomp has a opening at the slam pannel that is to wide for any other model

not a fact at all, vtr has 2 pipes coming off an induction kit- one breather and one for vaccum, vts only has the breather. look at riggsy's thread about him having to bodge his vts kit to get it to fit his g/friend's vtr. you can buy them model specific for usually no difference in price or in the case of the bmc etc you just buy the filter and add your own piping so not sure what the gay arguing is about

and cant say i'd be arsed changing the radiator just to fit a procomp to my vtr....

finally someone else who bases information on knowlege.

lol Sean, but the 90 bhp engine and the 98bhp engine of the VTR is different isn't it? well as far as the air intake goes, as the 98bhp version doesn't have the vaccum piping attached to the filter housing, whereas the 90bhp version does! and as you said you could just whack a breather on the vaccum pipe and you laughing!

lol, your probably right and i apologise if im wrong! but interesting to learn about this all the more

7th February 2007, 21:55

i've never said anything about breather filters except that they are gay

anyway, why buy a vts filter to fit a vtr when 9 times out of 10 the vtr kit will be cheaper

7th February 2007, 21:58

i know but im struggling to find the kit i want what i want to fit a vtr

even though the shells are the same, the engine bays may be totally different.
you have the different rads, and the different inlets/tbs..

this will mean not everything will fit because its for a saxo.

ive just been scanning ebay and found one for £23.99 to fit a vts fo that price even if it dosnt fit im not going to be too bothered cheers for all the help guys i understand saxo's intakes better now and i know what the 2 pipes on my vtr are for lol

7th February 2007, 22:39

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Complete-air-i...em190079520086

8th February 2007, 18:57

the second one is the sort i am looking for but as i said above i can only find them with the part for the breather pipe and not the vacuum pipe

8th February 2007, 19:23

So why u lookin at the vts induction kit then?

The induction kit for a vts is exactly the same as the 1 in link 2, just the diameters are different thats all.
