I've got one, getting it mapped on Saturday.
You can get more than 170 out of the standard turbo, but I'm planning to keep mine around 160-165 post map. More important is the torque if you're sticking with the standard clutch though - about 300 lb ft is the limit on them, depending on how you drive it.

Isn't a 55 plate going to be the 'old' shape Fabia (which is a manual)?

Don't get the forge cooler, get the Seat Sport one.
Talking proper figures, a stage 1 map (no other mods) will see about 160-170bhp with 300lb/ft. Stage 2 (exhaust, FMIC and clutch) will push a little more to about 185bhp tops and 330ish lb/ft. 190 (genuine) bhp kills turbos like no tomorrow. So much bull shit on the net about the VAG 1.9 engine, gotta be careful who you speak to. A lot of people can't map these properly either, just have a massive lump of torque before 2500rpm and fuck all after then.

If you want fast, buy a petrol.
If you want MPG, buy a diesel or a Micra.

Yeah they are mate. I haven't heard of any new models being diesel. But I may be wrong.
