doesnt have a aftermarket exhaust as im not to keen on having a loud car unless there is a good example for the golf which isnt too loud but nice sound?

Quiet until you get to about 3000 rpm then you get a nice deep rasp AND NOT OTT  :wink:

no offense taking, not liek i put it on myself or anything, ive bought a bonnet extention which im waiting on being delivered.

and i loved my saxo i had, but this is a hell of a lot classier and a beautie to drive, especially for my age

looks like miltek is a favourite. Anyone got any link to were they are the cheapest? maybe discount for member or such?

Nice motor mate.  If you got the bonnet extension (where from, got a link?), the a badgeless grill would be the way to go (maybe modded to 1 bar).

As for the engine, depends on how far you want to take it, lol.  There are many many options with varying degrees of expense.  As said before, a simple remap will get you about 200 BHP with your standard turbo, the K03.  You could upgrade to the k03s turbo from the AUM and AUQ engines (same as on 180 BHP models).  This, a silicon TIP, and possibly slightly bigger injectors will see about 230 BHP.

Andd a FMIC, and a sports cat (mine is miltek) and you could be looking upwards of 250 BHP.  None of the parts (except exhaust and FMIC) should be too hugely expensive, so part list can be built up over time.  A custom remap on this and your looking at pretty much a stage 2 conversion.  I have just done all of the above and am very happy with the results.

Obviously, suspension and brakes would need upgrading aswell.  R32 brakes maybe???  ARB's etc are possible.  Wow.  LOADS of money, lol.  Oh yeah, I needed a new clutch aswell.

If 200 BHP is fine, then go for it, get a remap.  But maybe look at getting it from a reputable dealer who would be willing to discount should you decide to take the car further.
