210bhp is about the max on the 1.4 and your looking at £10k on the engine.

There is a 1.4 16v rally spec Corsa B that frequents the Castle Combe circuit - IIRC, it makes 196 bhp at approx 8500 rpm 
For anyone that knows the circuit, it comes around Camp and is on the limiter in 5th gear just after the start/finish line, sounds like thunder too!
