Nice to hear, but to bad it wasn't stateside. 148 KW is ~ 198hp out of the 1.8l Keeps tempting me to get boosted.

BUT

4-5k km dont quite qualify for a complete reliability test tho, thats less than 3200miles. How long did Kewl's setup go before it started giving up the ghost?

That's not because he was boosted ... that's because of the Unichip ... and other problems related to the kit he bought.

Which is part of boosting a non-boosted car. You give up factory reliability for power. It's something that's been happening since the Model T. Not really anything new there but it seems every new generation forgets it.
