The only problem with the engines in them is you get bored of the power quick lol there too linear in delivery
If you are looking to map it - make sure your options for remap is revo or apr (revo is more aggressive I.e there's peak power quicker but tails off whereas Apr gives a less peak of power but holds it longer - so relatively... They are equal, but personal preference) I personally loved all the revo maps I've had over the years
A little advise though, which is a mistake I did - before any mods.. Do a stage 1 map, I waster hundreds upon hundreds to realise that mods alone didn't give 10% of a gain of the map, 450 for milltek + 300 itg intake = no gains virtually, £499 when revo do 20% off = a potential upto 320 bhp with no other mods
P.s I have the same engine

except mines the newer tsi unit (beleive being 08 you have tfsi)
