small bumper mk2 golf 16v u can pick up for under 1k easily
adjust the control pressure on the warm up regulator (a screw!) and your talking 150 - 155bhp on a bog standard engine. that will happily rev the nuts of itself all day long
also small bumper models have a better ECU than late big bumper models. late ECU's retard at high rpm's
plus they handle very well indeed
they aint heavy either, they only weigh 960kg's
cheap as chips to run also

only thing about 1.9 gti's is there aint much tuning capabilty with them as they are already well breathed upon on leaving the factory
great chassis though. mi16 conv would be the ticket
