I'd do everything possible to make the cupra handle better, much prefer them to the clios.

I did exactly the same swap, 220 bhp cupra to a 182, at the start it feels slow cause of the lack of torque, but when you get above 5k and learn how to drive an NA again its perfect... also had a VTS before and the 182 is just like a newer version, handling characteristics are all the same but it has better brakes and more grunt 
On my Cupra i had ARB's, 20mm spacers, FK silverline X coilovers, and it still handled like a fat elephant
