    For NA you want cams, exhaust, CAI and suspension mods to make it more enjoyable.

    To get real power increases you will need to go down the forced induction pathway.

    Lol, closer to 250kg, but yes I completely agree the motor is much better suited for a MK1/2

    If you could get your hands on an ABA head and gear from the USA, that head ported, with a cam and maybe even an Ebay chip to bump the limiter up in conjunction with your other mods of course. You'd have something that would honestly come close to an ABF in performance if it all works together

    You`d need different pistons as well as an ABA head.
