cut out the cat
air induction kit maybe green cotton
big bore
take out back seats less waight then your be surprised how much faster but then again it is abit more noisy
nos lol lol
maybe nitrox its a additive
lower it by id say 40 mm
not a huge detail but thats the basics really
maybe use higher octane petrol (super unleaded)

I wouldn't waste my money trying to make a 3 cylinder 1.0l engine faster. I'd just buy a new engine, it'd be much much cheaper, and better power upgrades in the long run.
