hehehe, diff is the 1.4 twincharger is not just turbo... there's super charging as well... therefore doesnt mean all the power have to come from spooling the turbo.. usually above certain rpm the super charger turns off and the turbo kicks in... but i believe you can keep the super charger on all the way
gearbox no prob... both the 6-speed and 7-speed dsg can take those power, brakes? just change to ceramic pads lor... caliper still can take it...
dont need change intercooler/radiator/oil cooler/ water pump/ oil pump... usually only trucks or rally cars need this as their turbo is always kicking in
stage 2 chip i think around sgd 1.1k, but can get it done cheaper in msia...
cousin did it to his jetta, but his is the stock model that comes with 170bhp already

i think what sean says is quite true..
there is alot of factor you need to put in before considering to put in a stage 2 chip, in which after all the mods, you could opt for a higher model already
(please be considerate & think of the innocent)
by default a jet can outrun your daily wira-lution and inspira-lution
a stage 2 chip can make your car gun faster, but what about the power to brake ratio? ceramic pads only good for certain period, 2 run and a half down at sepang, you will be having a bbq pads..suspension coil over? gearbox may handle the daily pressure, how about emergency downshift?
supercharging may be gunning it all the way, but what truely matters is your skill to control the toy..
i've seen many ppl with 300horsies down the hood but when it comes to taking sideways, they hit on the red as fast as they accelerate, even wira-boy dares to take sideways better than them
