1397cc wet liner'd 4cyl 8v pushrod with a solex 32dis carb and a garrett T2 from the factory 0-60 mph in 7.2 seconds and 127mph stock with 118bhp

£100 gets you around 170bhp (ngk red box plugs, re jetted carb ,strapped intercooler -to stop the plastic end caps blowing off , and 18psi of boost) which in an 800kg car is reasonably fun

260 to the wheels is possible with a group a rally carb, T25 turbo, ported head , 2 1/4 " exhaust , alloy intercooler , water injection and 24 psi...

there are gt turbos that make 290 to the wheels at 32 psi.. from a 1.4 litre
