Hey, anyone know how I can do some tuning on my 1.4 sport engine (X14XE) to give it some more speed?
Thanks.

yeh you could do exhaust manifold, Inlet manifold, drilled airbox with panel filter, de-cat, Cat-back exhaust system, cams, re-map,
but you could just put a 1.6 lump in, do these mods to that and get a good overall 130bhp, where as if you did these to the 1.4 then you wont be much quicker than a standard 1.6 sport

mines got
cams
slight head work
4-2-1 manifold and exhaust
power box inlet
and a RR print out for 115bhp..
goes quite well for what it is..
but plan to put a 1.6 in, in a later date and use all my bits on that..

yeah just derestrict and drill air box, itg panel if they make them for corsas (itg pro filter is best panel, had a k&n in my corsa which was ok) and nice backbox or something (was using a lexmaul on mine), then save for bits for the 2.0
