i'd love to see a 20bhp increase from a inlet manifold change from a 1.2.

Save the £800 notes to put towards a new bigger car or an engine transplant.

Ask regal about power increases.

i spoke to regal about this manifold and this was what they had to say:-

This should only take one day and I currently have the parts in stock. The ecu is a software upgrade without physical chip change. Dbilas quote 18ps increase. However I would say 10 bhp if not more.

Not very easily unfortunately, mainly because of too many bloody electrical bits! The M-Tech 2.0T is running 2 ECU's to help get around some of the problems
