pictures! the 1.8 16V is great but you wont get much more power out of it without putting in stupid money. throttlebodiesand a standalone ecu will get you to 129hp. gti6 exahust manifold a few more. The standard ecu isnt remappable easily. For track i would go with decent tyres, strip it out, bucket and harness it. Fit a gti6 inlet and exhaust manifold and leave it at that. Should be easily achievable for a few hundred.
