my 16v achieved 154.9 bhp at carbons rolling road day at manchester last october now only things i have done are exhaust custom air feed with cold air feed and cleaned throttle body apparently in the add when i bought it it was said to have a chip on it but i have yet to look and find out so dont know! i am now going for a head rebuild port polish and a custom remap to see what it then makes i think maybe 165 if im lucky  :smiley:

Well seeing as a standard 1.8T has 150hp, which is the same as the lighter Mk3, then I'm not surprised. No chance in beating a remapped 1.8T though.
