As Matt said, you will end up loosing your licence or wrapping the car around a lampost.
Don't let your mates or other bangers make you act like a dick on private roads.

you can raise the rev limit but the components really need strengthening first, which happens to be very costly!
£100 for ARP rod bolts and you can rev to 9000rpm if you want.
Well the cambelt rollers ideally need replacing too, as the plastic ones tend to fail at high rpm.

A standard 1.6 is slow as fook, so go with the 2.0, unless you tune the 1.6

and wooly, don't be silly, wait until you have driving experience. no point fiddling around with conversions and the sort after 10 months driving experience.
