keep it standard and get a remap. you could fit a bigger turbo but will need it mapped anyway, and after that it will be running so much power it will need forged rods.

I'm planning on only bringing it to about 200 for now but I may aswel add an extra 200 towards a better turbo then buying the standard one. Cause I'm planning on putting the Quattro system into it

you do know you need a new floorpan for this? don't build something you can buy.

No, the floor pan is the same, everything is bolt on however there is a lot that needs swapping over: tank, rear subframe, rear diff, rear suspension, rear driveshafts, gearbox, propshaft, tank and a few more odds and sods !

then keep it stndard and buy something else to modify. if you want a quick car, buy a quick car thats got quattro already. save some money and buy a cheap s4.
