Been there done that :P

Had an ibiza cupra new when they came out and not a bad car, runs a K03 turbo so you will not get much more than 210bhp out of it. K04 turbo will take you to the levels in the vag 5 (270ish) and then hybrid option gets you upto 350 before you have to start spending lots of cash and as much power as you can crave.

I was running 210ish in mine and struggled to get the power down on small tracks, diff would have helped :)

Also put AP's on so brakes were sorted ;)

Seem to go for good prices now
