All you need is upgraded connecting rods, fresh rings, and a hone. Stock 1.8t pistons are the best option for your power level. Go hang in the 1.8t technical forum, and read a bit![]()

if your motor is running great right, just do rods, no need for rings and hone, cuz not done right you will consume oil after so leave it, if ok.
leave rest stock, some cams will help alot like Cat cams 3658 with that turbo will get you 40WHP.
Software well only one choice Eurodyne Maestro on whatever injector you want, miniumum 630cc
FMIC is good for consistent HP, since it will heatsoak very fast, but you can wait if you want,
Good size downpipe and Catback is good power gains.
Let me know if you need help
