Make sure you put it on ebay classifieds too ben - much cheaper than autotrader and much wider audience.
I love the high reving lol but yeah you do have to put your foot down to get them going compared to a turbo petrol/diesel
The power band is relatively small though as VTEC kicks in at 5800rpm and the limiter is at 8400rpm on the standard UK models.
I may address that somewhere down the line and change the ECU which increase the limit to 8900/9000rpm
Its ok booting it low down, but its all torque. All you have to do is drop a cog in the civic. Its not suited for a lazy driver like the golf, especially with DSG.
Loving the motor Ben. Don't even think about doing ECU mods. B pipe and Teigwa FTW!!!

The Polo's are hard little cars to sell simply because its hard to actually put them up for sale, they have a habit of persuading you to not sell up lol
Mine will be on eBay this weekend and i'm hoping it sells fairly quickly
Still got some parts left if anybody is interested such as the Raceland Manifold, K&n Typhoon, G60's and more bits & pieces
