Max power AGU engine

[Purely VAG]

Might be worth trying to get someone with lsd so you can drive it first, i've heard mixed reviews.

But yeah just remember Less weight/More Power/Transferring onto road

250bhp is a general concensus on fwd as a pointless to exceed unless running an lsd ect..

Some sticky Yoko's up front im sure would be a nice edition, but expensive and they're about as hard as butter.

You must live in my cupboard then coz i have to microwave it all time so i can spread the darn thing.

bottom end is supposed to be good for 350bhp, but bare in mind the 1.8T has a habit of spitting valves when revved hard past 7k which is where you hit peak power with big turbos

yea not sure, may get it rebuilt

would uprated valve springs cure this or is it a case of them dancing on the bonnet regardless of what springs you use?.

Uprated valve's and springs and titanium retainers will see you good to rev to 8K
