Just thought you'd like to know, i've just bought ANOTHER polo, a 1.0 match.

I've just been promoted so now i've got more money than i know what to do with, so here's a brief shopping list

1.8T engine (i'm aiming for at least 250bhp)
15'' Compomotives
Yoko street/race tyres (think road-legal slicks)
No interior, just 2 seats and dials
big brakes

Any other suggestions are welcome, but it might take a while to build, i've got to sort things out with the green one.

If your gonna go for 250bhp best to start with the K04 turbo (from the TT) as the golf one is a K03, and the hassle involved in getting it up to 250 you'd be better to stick the K04 on. But even with 200bhp in a stripped out polo, it'll be a flying machine!!

Does anyone know how the 1.8T engines handles NOS? I've spoke to a couple of tuning firms and no one really seems to know.

well nos does tend to go well with turboed engines caus it cools the temperature. In fact nos goes better on a turboed engine than na.
just be careful caus its always gonna be putting more strain on engine and other parts like clutch, box , drive shafts etc.
