You can get quite good power from these engines tbh. With cams/chipped/headwork some have seen 100bhp +. You've also got the option of putting a 1.6 bottom end on there for an extra 10bhp. I considered going down that route but in the end thought it was going to cost too much. But if you are doing it for insurance reasons it could be a great idea as you can get good power without have to declare anything extra.

The best way any decinet gains is a more powerful engine a 1.8 or 2.0 engine will give way more power for £.

You can as said get some fair increases but the cost does add up more than say a 2.0 Williams engine etc which gives 150hp+ easy.

Yeah, I shoudl have said that. If you can afford the insurance it's much better to go for a 1.8 or 2.0 but if it's for insurance reasons then the 1.4 is certainly a reasonably option if your willing to spend the cash.
