welcome to the forum

rust wise place's to check are :-

rear arches
boot
rear windows

check the reader's ride section will give you a idea on how much it will cost you to go big bhp personally i would go ko3 hybrid you would get 280-300 bhp without having to change rod's pistons etc etc that the way im going all i need to do is send the turbo off to cr turbo's and get it mapped job done and get ready for a bit of

you can also check the for sale section for some cupra's that have been mapped etc

wat are the standard internals good for ?

300 bhp as said hybrid.

pistons are capible of pushing 300bhp but wouldnt want the risk of spitting rods out every where thats why ive gone forged pistons and rods be on the safe side

i think he means brand names tbh as im sure more than one company may make forged pistons....
