8v is only gonna give you as much power as you had with the sexmaul.
16v is gonna be better whatever.....
if you rebuild it as it was, or uprated a bit, you'll get 160+ bhp with mappable management
if you do it with tbs, and a wad of cash, you know the results 
to be honest though, you have the engine already, you know how good it can be, and i'd love to see a 170bhp non tb 1.6

if you supercharge it, use a proper charger, not a gay centrifugal one

if its repainted, i assume you will be stripping all the underseal off, and all the old paint, as paint weighs alot when all added up, then it shall has a thin coat of primer and a thin coat of colour and thats it?
