Its had engine work done to it ! Mate I don't give a sh@@ what u think or say ! I'm not on here to impress you ! I'm here to gain knowledge and better my car and have a bit of friendly banter ! Seems ur not so friendly mr smarty pants!!!!

Standard a VR is around 174, if yours is 218bhp then what work has it had to gain 44bhp.

But what about 16v owners? they seem to get very good gains from nothing

Lets not venture down that path tonight, at least not whilst I have a headache.

Well a 16v does 170 with a remap, so a vr must do 200

LOL and it turns into a Wayne appreciation thread But +1 you can rely on Wayne for some helpful input!
God help you when you meet DH    

Uhmm as said before i would have started with a 3 door 16v, since the VR is VERY front heavy and understeers!
But work with what you've got Bore it out, possibly the Rado inlet, Port + polish the head, Bigger Rado TB
Then Supercharge it, especially for track use Should see you hitting that magical 300hp with some pretty pennies spent
Worth wiping the smile of the BM and Merc drivers out there
Good luck with it mate, everyone has different opinons on whats HOT and whats NOT
We all do silly races! Just dont tell others about it

Are the pictures you have posted old pictures ??  I ask because I am sure I can see the passenger headrest in the one pic and the engine still has the original air filter housing. The first mod for most would be a decent cold air intake kit. As said before the engine looks pretty standard but then again some mods cannot be seen. Also said before but listen to Wayne....he is one of the most knowledgable guys on here and knows his onions Mate.

I feel like I'm being attacked for buying the wrong car for the track ! I'm not a mechanic nor am I an engine tuner ! I'm on here for u guys to help me not slag me off ! I can only tell u what I know about the car in the hope u can advise me ! It has had engine mods done to it not sure what exactly ! What I do know is it has a 6 branch manifold full stainless exaust, induction kit, power chip and the internal work ? Please stop barking at me I'm nit a 17 year old kid showing off. I'm a 30 year old that's into cars and is after some advise !

[AudiA8Quattro]

I think the advice given so far has been good
