The answer is unfortunately no. The GTI throttle body is completely different to all other 6n2 ones, in the fact its drive by wire, and it requires a completely different intake setup for the VVT.

Depends how far you want to go and what budget you have. Bolt on Supercharger is a nice option but wont come cheap.

Manifold, De-Cat Exhaust System, Induction Kit, Re-Map & performance Cams will give you about 35BHP but that will set you back £1500 probably, maybe more. Weight reduction might be your best bet.

If not then I suggest looking for a Polo GTI or Lupo GTI
