Ya. one of the cheapest/most effective mods you can do to out the lot.
The fuel pump has a screw which by careful tweaking increase the fuelling. The super 1.5D majorly modded saxo (Lee Rushdon's old car) had been increased to over 80hp at the fly i believe.
so a >30% increase in power is possible. however that should really be matched with a very good high flow air filter and other breathing mods. Overfuel the engine and there'll be soot coming out the back end all day long, which will bugger you up on MOT emissions.
