simple mods such as s/s exhaust & induction kit will get you a few xtra bhp, maybe 2-3
but in truth there is no point trying to make a 1.0 faster, ur jsut pissing money down the drain as 90% of other cars will still hammer it

but then uve changed the topic from how to make a 1.0 faster to how to make a vauxhall corsa go like shit ..... Carnt just go dropping red tops here there and everywhere lol although its always a standard reply now to these types of posts. Depending on how oldsamt33 is etc, may get a raping off insurance.

Tuning a 1.0 12v would be an endless battle for no results. Save up for an engine conversion mate!

if you put nos etc it would bang the engine but if you get a bolt on from and make it like the charada i dont think you would have a problem! dont know if anyone on here could give you pointers!
