I've got a 2.0l. Looks like everything I have read and heard from people is to stay with the tt set, but I may get the 260/276 set and trade for the tt cams and some $$ if they are really bad around town. Seems like to get the most out of the cams I would need a ported head and the 50mm intake. I don't really want to spend that much on this car though.
