Default Glasgow Newbie

Hi Guys

Just bought a 98 2000 turbo wagon, 60,000 miles on the clock and completely standard. The way I wanted it. I stay in Barrhead, about 10 mins from Glasgow city centre if any of you guys stay near! Just wondered if any of you could give me a step for a hint as to how powerful my new car is bhp, 0-60 etc and also what engine mods are best to start off withto get a few more horses out. Im new to the turbo scene as ive previously owned fast Reno's.

Any help would be much appreciated.
