Getting a little more out of a 1.6

Ex-Biker 27 Feb 2005, 5:28pm
Anyone any ideas how to get a little more power from the 1.6 engine?

I'm not looking for much.

I will want a bit more in the future, but my plan is to fit the engine 'as is' from the donor and then if (or should I say when) the head goes or it needs the cam belt change etc I will then look to changing the cams and getting the head ported.

By this time I'll be used to the car and be wanting more power.

In the mean time, I don't want to spend much, but would like to get something iro 120bhp from the standard 110.
