Handling mods are as good as any place to start.  An anti lift kit (WALK or Superpro) will help keep that power down, rear anti roll bar (sway bar) will make a world of difference (Autotech are very good), and some form of engine mount or mounts, I would personally suggest a lower engine mount ie Powerflex - cheap, SuperPro - a wee bit more and THS - the dogs dingles. All IMHO.

Thanks. I'll have a look at the CAI.  I honestly think I'll start on the handling side of things first.  I'll get a superpro anti lift kit.  I must be honest and say I'd rather get a front and rear anti roll bar.  I wouldn't like to have one and not the other.  I need to look into engine mounts.  This is new ground for me. 

Sorrt but THS???

How do you thnk I will feel on the dyno....MkV Golf 1.9TDI Sport in DBP, 160,000 miles and climbing  lol     But saying that its always the low 45-55k early 140PD which I worry about most even with just 100mb of boot added I wait for them to pop a turbo on the dyno, two 140PDs failed on the dyno at stage1 since May 2009 and one crap early K03 hybrid.  :ashamed:
