i doubt it, the difference in the chamber diameter would cause problems
i take it your asking for flow purposes.. its not really cost effective to tune the 1.6 as it is to just drop the 1.8 in.

only option really is to turbo charge to get past it..
but everything you need to blow the 1.6 besides the pistons you would need for a 2.0... so it wouldent really be worth it again.
the 1.6 zetec E is proberly alot better than what your last car was running at a guess.. but once people want to start to tune them.. they learn theres not much they can really do, and the engine gets disregarded again.
another option tho is good management and throttle bodys or carbs,
you can allways carry them over to 1.8 and 2.0 aswell with just a remap needed.
