If you have a 1.2 Energy engine I wouldnt bother with parts as I doubt you will not get much more than 90bhp on it unless you turbo'd it. But if you do have a 1.2 Energy engine you could stick a 1.4 energy engine in it and a 1.6 bottom end from a Megane for a good boost and it will look exactly the same as the 1.2 engine. You could then tune it and get around 120/130 bhp from it depending on how much work you do..

De-cat, exhaust, filter, cold air feeds etc

On the other hand good suspension and brakes will make teh car quicker point to point.
