A set of 96mm pistons, 86A web cam, nice pair of heads, and bump the CR to 8.5:1

This should do the trick, quite well.

A nice turbo would do the trick! It's been done to a 1.7l with CIS FI too. Not sure how much hp he is getting, maybe he will post his results. Ed?

a "baseline" turbo will run anywhere between 500-1000 bucks.. depending on how resourceful you are..

you'd have to be able to weld, and have your own welder though..

Jeff - 2.0L turbo..
