Oil tank will need a mod if using a return line. That’s about it. Crazy fun. But if the big power bug hits you a tranny change will be needed along with suspension brakes and everything else to support the power.
Why would it make sense to buy chips for Motronic, buy RRFPR and still have injectors totally maxxed out and AFM barn door complicating piping very badly?

One would still need WBO2 kit and when putting all things together it will almost make amount that you could buy VEMS PnP for and it already has WBO2, works on stock sensors and you can use proper injectors without any hack jobs.

What amazes me is that when it comes to building engine itself, people do not hesitate coughing up few thousand just to get 0.2 liters of more displacement (which is pintless performance wise) and yet trying to save few hundred when deciding whether buying proper ECU vs using Motronic with hackjob...Can you explain me this please?
