Evening Gent's

Not too long ago i sold my bilstein liberty and have been looking around for something turbo, eventually i found this at an auction, it only had 97,000km's and was relativley cheap. 
 
Pretty keen to start modding it when i am not so poor (uni budget). As well as some stuff i plan on getting done pretty soon:
as this is my first turbo, i know sweet  all about modifying the engine so any advice or tips are welcome.

thanks guys, keen to start modifying it but first off i really want to take out the alarm system in it. its driving me insane. i cant get oyut of the car while the engine is running or else the alarm shits itself aswell as having to punch in the security code in the keypade everytime i turn the car on. i know realise why so many people hated the brandt alarms.
