OK u might not like this ideas but you wont be going all that slow anymore with a top speed of 120 mph and a 0-60 of 12 secconds <br><br>yes u guessed it<br><br>it's a 1800 DIESEL so it will be cheaper to insure and you get GREAT milage. <br><br>should you be interested i happen to have a spear engine i put a 1800 DTI in mine instead. <br><br> <IMG SRC="http://www.v8fiesta.co.uk/images/mmo_sig.gif">

mate u could try putting k&N air filter or equivilant! give u a little bit more bhp! and a full stainless exhaust would too but there kinda expensive if u dont have much dosh! apart from that not much else apart from exchanging the engine! soz

ur best option is to drop in a bigger lump....doesnt necessarily have to be a turbo...could always go for an RS1800 lump or even xr2i if u wanted. this will save u money in the long term [ERRR] at the mo u'll be throwing money into a 1.1 that aint really gonna be able to be modded alot and will not push out alot of power....if u get what i mean??
