I have a 16 year old coming up towards 17, driving lessons, etc. They're not very deep hence replacing now. (No, he will *not* be learning in this!)
Realistically on this version (NC Facelift 2 aka Mk3.75) there's an induction kit that bumps it by about 15-20HP, and a road legal 'catback' which combines catalyst and silencer in the back box that adds about another 20HP so that makes it potentially around 200-205HP or about 140kW. Ish.
Given I'm plenty happy with the power a 2 litre engine provides in this chassis, I think I'll stick with stock. I can get myself in plenty of sillyness with that
