its a 1.2, keep it, leave it alone till ur insurence will let you either upgrade the car its self or the engine.

its never gona be quick and is it really worth sending a fortune getting 4hp here and maybe 2hp there?

cheapest and quickest way is an engine swap
it will cost a fortune to make it faster sadly, can make it sound faster with an exhuasts and airfilter mods but thats about it
you can remap em, however remaps are more suited to turbocharged cars (like mine(
on a NA car you would be lucky to see maybe 4hp unless you seriosly upgrade everything else

yer there are only 3 ways to make the little 1.2 faster they are:

induction kit
exhaust system
and interior strip

stay away from big soundsystems and fat friends lol

but if your after more power sell up and get a bigger engine corsa . or swap the engine for a bigger one. but think .....isit worth it ???
