If it's turbocharged, which it is, then petrol or diesel doesn't matter.

so it is, just looked at the owners profile. Forced inductions is so much easier to extract more from. Assumed it was 1.8 or 2.2

Its a 2.0t it gets serviced every 6 months. I have read that I could see 205 210bhp

It's a cheap mod for the result.

Depends on your budget entirely. Mine's running 240bhp, @Caveman_nige is running about 285bhp and there's higher than that out there.

Best bet (and the main tuners for this engine these days) is Maptun http://www.maptun.com/tuningGuide.ph...56&listorder=5

Standard stage 1 from other tuners should give you around the 200-210bhp you were quoting depending on how well maintained your engine is and if you have a CAT back sports exhaust or not basically.

Add a decent CAT back exhaust and bigger 381cc injectors allow you to jump straight to stage 2 Maptun which is 215bhp, bigger turbo - stage 3 (240bhp) and so on and so on.
