I've got a 2003 Octavia vRS and had it remapped by JabbaSport at 7k miles. Now on 61k and I need more power!

What is the next step?

Bigger turbo looks like the next step if you want a lot more power

What does that involve? Is a brake upgrade required? Clutch?

If you do a search it will bring up plenty of ideas

Makes the remap pretty pointless if you go that way would be lots of money with all the other things that need uprating and then would need to have a different map put on.. CAI and exhaust would be the cheaper options.

yup exhaust will be worth it or failing that a read ARB is a well worth upgrade that im yet to do myself

Depends what you want from the car. If you want big power figures, talk to Jabba about the best way to achieve them (imagine exhaust, better induction, FMIC and bigger turbo (IHI?) will be on the shopping list). May also want to look at a 6-speed gearbox too and LSD.

If you want a car that is quicker in real terms, then look at suspension upgrades (KW3, uprated ARBs, lightweight wheels with sticky tyres and better brake discs, fluid and pads).

If you want the best of both worlds, then go for it.....

The only way your going to get a lot more power, is with a bigger turbo, from here-on.

There are two things to decide first

1. What can you afford & remember money spent on tuning is rarely recovered when you sell the car

2. How long will you keep the car

Too true i remember watching the first ever episode of Fifth gear where they showed a 400bhp nissan micra. The bloke had spent

If you intend to keep the car I
