    Back to the OT, a disco potato in a Polo would probably come in pretty late and savagely. You might need the 2.0 stroker kit to help it spool (or if you really are chasing big numbers, then the low compression stroker kit).

    Did you plan for an LSD/TDB to go with the engine/clutch mods?

    Sam, what's your end goal for the car mate, run quarter mile, highway runs or circuit?

    If it's a top-end style of turbo (i.e. larger) on a 1.8l, would that mean needing more revs to get the most out of it, so a 7k rev limit or something.

    I was thinking the same thing.
    To be honest unless you are going to make this thing into a proper track car there is really no point in going to a much larger turbo as happy laps won't allow its full potential.

    Sean's car hammers around lakeside and regularly keeps pace with the more powerful cars.
