To be honest im really regretting buying it. It seems the only way to get more performance from the me7 cars is to get a remap i see you have one like mine do you have yours remaped ?
There's a few basic things you can do to get a bit more grunt from your car.
Replace the injectors or get them refurbished - this will give you more response, top end torque and much better MPG.
Tighten the wastegate actuator - they go slack after 100+k miles
Replace or clean the MAP (boost pressure) sensor - replacement is probably best.
Replace the TCV and all the vac lines.

And if you're careful, you can even fit a bleed valve to make the boost come in sooner, giving the car a more aggressive feel. Be careful tho as it can cause all sorts of trouble.
