Could you not get a set of throttle bodies on it and a stand alone ecu....
get the head ported and polished, cams ect..
I had a set of WEBER bodies on a 2.0 ZETEC mondeo, and boy did it go... :grin: :grin:
I think it cost about 2k to do and sort out.....

Or go for NOS alot cheaper, but it runs out :cry: :cry:

The engine isnt completely useless.

You have a few options to play with, improving the air flow will definitely help and a remap will make the car run better.
In my opinion you've got a few options,
1.
DSG intake,
Uprated cams,
Miltek exhaust,
remap.


This seems like a sensible option without going too much into engine swaps, supercharging modification etc. A tubular manifold would also help with the breathing of the engine and a hi-flo cat.
BHP gains may not be outstanding, but will be enough for you to notice the difference and not get bored too quickley.
