View Full Version : Iduction or exhaust?
Hi guys
Got my new VTS last week (love it) but want to do some mods! I have enough cash at the mo to put a Pipercross Viper induction kit OR a custom powerflow exhaust! I want increased bhp and it to sound mean - so which would you guys do, if you could only do one?
Cheers

Neither of them will add much power, its more about the sound i believe
a few bhp at most, go for the exhaust first ;)
Pipercross claim the induction will add 10 bhp to a C2 vts!
Cheers

induction kits can actually improve the BHP a little, mainly enclosed ones such as the viper and BMC, as they force more cold air into the engine. Also a full cat back exhaust system can add a little more BHP.
Personally i would choose the exhaust first, as you will not notice the full effect of the Viper without the exhaust, so you may feel a little badly done by if you stick the viper on by its self.
I would also go for a magnex, cos they rule eh sue :D :D ;)

Be careful with a powerflow exhasut. You have to keep good care of them :wink:

I personally would go for an exhaust, just because it would look and sound so much better than the standard pea shooter!

I've got a VTS with a standard exhaust, K&N Typhoon and 20k under its belt and i personally think that it sounds the nuts!
I like the way it can be barely heard at 7am when i'm warming the engine before my daily treck but on the flip side i love the way it howls over 5k.
Just a gentle blip at the lights gets people looking over aswell if your into that sort of thing....

viper will give you about 15 to 20 bhp actually!
exhaust will look better and sound better, exhaust for me 1st!

What Viper is that??? :P
With Viper and a pipercross will get him a most 10bhp!! And remapping the Ecu will give 15bhp at most!

:lol: Very true eh Dan
Why hype over the 2 or 3 bhp you may or may not get from a new airfilter? :? Even if you are 'lucky' and get some more bhp, you will never ever feel any difference.
