   I have found that McCain chips work really well with TU engines.

    how much money do you have?
    
    personally hate vipers but o well.
    
    get a decent exhaust and then manifold.
    
    then IF you want to stick with the 1400, cam it and a remap of the standard ecu.
    
    or throttle bodies and standalone or go boost.

    Get a manifold either 4-1 or 4-2-1. Get a better exhaust straight throught etc, you could decat it which again would make it less restrictive.

    I have a 1.4 myself and the best two modifications I have done are stripping it and lowering it.
    
    But if you want a decent induction kit, maybe a raceland enclosed with a green filter inside. Or get a BMC enclosed air filter from kam-racing like I am doing

    Im going with the raceland with green when the one for the VTR comes out, a lot cheaper than the BMC and any difference performance wise between them is probably negligable.

    What sort of performance are you looking at with a cam and throttle bodies, sorry I'm not really up on the whole thing.

    so some cams are classed as mild some more hardcore.
    
    throttle bodies alow you to run more harcore cams and still maintain idle, (usually due to equal air getting to each cylinder irc)
    
    a thrttle bodied 8v could only hit 120bhp on one cam, but with another cam + new lifters, headwork etc.. reach 160.

    Then losing weight is going to be the best thing you can do, or change the gearbox for one with a shorter final drive rather than messing with the engine.

    Is there a large difference in what the Vtr can pull in comparison with the Westie/Furio?

    Lol, she take up all the rear bench then? You dont need to take out front seat. just stuff like rear seats, spare wheel etc.

    I think the camming a Westcoast with breather mods and mild cam such as piper 270 would leave just a slight bit more power than a standard VTR.

    16v on cams is the most economical way to 155-160 bhp imo.
    
    and i used the word econmocal before the 8v brigade start burning bras.

    You can get some of the tyre stuff that fixes a puncture, cant remember what its called though. As for how much a gearbox would be im not realy sure, but a GTI/VTS one is your best bet as rallye one can be hard and expensive to find.

    Also thats not really a problem, she can just put it in the bigger boot you would have without the back seats.

    Haha yeah, it would be nice to have a bit more power. But I can see why you would just 16v it instead

    theres no replacment for displacment!
    
    and 16V engines have more ability to gain power from.
    
    ive seen a 1.4 16v at over 180bhp.
