   I KEEP HEARING ALL THESE STORIES ABOUT C2 AND HOW GOOD THEY ARE - BUT I THINK THE VTS IS A GREAT CAR...

   i dont think it would be any faster its actually less powerful than the vts engine plus wiring of a c2 lump into a saxo could be a complete arse due to the way the c2 is wired and i cant remember the actual name of it at the moment but its basically a lot less wiring that is controlled by a unit that send sthe signals down the wire to tell each component what to do. very crude explanation but im tired

   thought the VTS engine would be the better option.
   
   Anyway you can have way more fun and potential with the saxo engine as people have more experiance of it then the C2,
   
   Do you agree?

   the same potential is there with the c2 and it has been supercharged and did show excellent results but that was shelved until this new ecu thing is cracked, so at the moment the vts still has the edge
