you can get a good 150bhp from the 8v reliably,

some are 115 std or 130

its the torque is what the 8v is good at

Engine number is to the right of the engine near the dipstick on a plate.
Just below the top part of the manifold

trust me theyre awesome. great power delivery.
If its an NE you've got 115bhp
SE - 120ish
SER-130

All of them are good and yeh you can get all 3 to around 150 easy. SEH even more

Mate had a throttle bodied SEH with all the works running 180

edit - there was a thread in projects of a foreign guy with one with a turbo conversion in his corsa

if your going to fit the ne, i'd personally got for a small block 1.6, will be just as quick due to less weight,
