Hey all...

I'm new to this forum. so here's a bit about me..

I live in New Delhi, India.. what i do for living- i'm a designer, a restauranteer, and director of company that does big concerts all over India..

I have quite a few cars but what concerns us are the Skodas that i own--- i have a Skoda Laura L&K 1.9 Diesel Automatic and A Skoda Octavia 20V Turbo Manual....

I've recently developed a taste for track racing that happens here in Delhi on F1 track and i've been taking my Octavia 20V turbo ..

its great there.. love the pick up .. unfortunately a bit too heavy for track.. so the last time i went there.. i smoked my newly installed break shoes..

now what i need help with is.. that its a car i can spare only for track days.. and i'd love to do something about it without spending a fortune on it..

nothing that i'd like to do to it cosmetically.. but i would like to add some raw power and grip.. so i'm supposing i need to change the tyres, rim, brake system and few things in the engine like air intake , exhaust (don't know if i'm required to change this at all- though would prefer not to.. like i said before.. don't wish to spend a fortune on this.) and Turbo charger if required to be changed... which i think is required..

so anyone who could help me out with this for i have not much info about how to go about it..

PS- i don't want to create a complicated car that's always parked in a workshop.. so whatever suggestions you do give, please do keep in mind, i'd like it to be a comfortable road car that is not a showoff and that i can take on long trips without being worried about it breaking down in the middle of nowhere ..

looking forward to hear from you experts.

thank you

Welcome to Briskoda. I recommend that you repost your request for help in the Octavia I forum where you should get loads of advice on what is and isn't possible. Just cut and paste the above, and mention here that you have done so which will ensure that all the replies are in the correct forum. Good luck.

thank you DGW... really appreciate your support...

copy and pasted in Octavia I as suggested above.
