Just bin the engine and put something else in. :evil:
I stuck a mk2 cam in mine,pipercross panel filter,advanced the ignition a tad and that was just for sh1ts and giggles.It sounds ok and has plenty of torque but they are still gutless.Mine is the ABS btw.

i had a 1.8 spi and all i did is removed the airbox removed the pipe and stuck the cone filter straight on the side of the carb/injection system whatever that thing really is i can guarantee there was NO power gain but it sounded the nuts giving the illusion of speed lmao
