   Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knows any free methods of tuning to give a small, if any bhp change.
   I don't plan on using the car on the road etc, I just like to use it to mess about so don't really mind what I do it.
   So if anyone has any ideas on how I can tune it for free and easily. Let me know

   Porting the head to the inlet and exhaust manifold would be a good thing to practice doing if your just messing about. Might smooth out the throttle response if you do a good job. You'd need a die grinder and some sand paper. Very useful thing to know how to do on more powerful setups.

   Increasing the compression is fairly cheap and in ways is a win-win, in as much as you gain power, torque and efficiency without a loss of driveability.

   Strip it out, less weight = better power to weight ratio!
   
   However, it states
