Doesn't have the looks of the ZS, but I'm sure it'll be quite a bit faster. All the best with it.

are you not getting heat soak with that filter, as turbo engine's run very very hot. my astra turbo lost around 6bhp on the rollers with a open cone filter on over the standard air box

despite the skoda badge, its all VW/Audi parts, very solidly built from inside, no rattles or anything inside.

nice car , i drove the mk2 2.0t and it was superb.
Your engine has somne serious potential too if you ever desire some more power, i bet its about 215 bhp as is.
