In standard trim there not to bad, pretty decent for a 1.3 turbo but the tuning potential of them is HUGE

There are LOADS up my way 2 of them especially are seriously quick

One makes 25bhp ATW and the other aint that far off, there weapons

very fast once you tune them. some people down here know about my mates, it's ridiculously fast and a bastard to control, swerves all over the road if you put your foot down

110bhp on low boost, 133bhp on high boost (they have a OE boost controler)

There is a couple in the UK running 400+bhp

To run them over 12psi you need a FCD and a RRFPR. TD04 conversions are common and some people even run 200bhp on OE internals.

Guy on CruiseNotts bought on imported. Hadn't been converted to run on British fuel. Filled it up on unleaded not knowing, then blew the bottom end.

Was lovely while it lived though

thats mine, on standard everything ruff, i was level with a red top, but around 80mph the turbo drops off due to the cat. no offence to 1.6 gsi owners, but you wouldnt smoke one. you prob would if it was a glanza with boost restriction in 1st and 2nd but with that off no chance!

with a few mods, i was running 142bhp 174 torque and i was smoking mk5? escort rs2000 on low boost with a fucked clutch.
