hey ,

i've got myself a 1991 1.2 merit 3door (79100 miles) , and im turning it into a gsi look a like (as the paint and bodywork isnt to great) but with a SR spec-ish engine for now (its my first car)

i've bought/buying the following stuff:

Inlet Manifold and twin choke carb of a 1.3SR as i heard they fit on
Gsi alloys
Gsi/gte sideskirts
new NGK sparks
Gsi decals
full coilover suspention kit with adjustable ride height 20mm to 100mm
full polyboshing kit
brembo brake discs + pads
Gsi boot spoiler
New front wings as they are slightly dented + plus rusting in the normal places
also getting profesional respray in red

Im looking for these parts:
full exhust system of a 1.4SR or 1.6Gsi also heard this gives more power
camshaft of 1.6GSI

any tips/advice on whatelse to get more SR kinda power out of my 1.2 without spending loads of money?
