Most cant. Especially at 2.5k price range. Will be the older engines not capable of running that power

That's rubbish.
110's remap to about 145, 130's to not far off 180.

had a go in my mates golf gt tdi, worth the money if you can find one cheap. Think it had intercooler, remap, clutch flywheel upgrade, some stupidly expensive suspension and it was quick as f**k. Doing about 80 was still returning about 40mpg
