dont bother its only got 115 bhp, get the 2l 16v or the 1.8 16v as these are much quicker, i just did an insurance quote on the 2.0 8v and 16v and there was only 100 quid in it.

is that 136bhp not the 2.0 16v that is found in the corrado and uses a smaller inlet manifold (42mm) for more low down torque as opposed to the 51mm found on the golf
