Don't waste your money on tuning a 1.2 8v, completely pointless.

Cheap ''performance'' mods to a 1.2 8v wont do anything at all. If you want more power, put a 1.4 head on, 1.4 tb, 1.4 inlet, & get a full exhaust. But then you'll only see about 5bhp, if!

This is why it's a waste of time. Just see if you can afford a 1.4/1.6 conversion.
