Is there anyway of making my 1.0 Nova faster just by tweeking the engine and not actually spending any money, or if it comes to it spending a bit.

the ony way of making your car faster without spending money is by stripping all un-needed weight

rear seats ,and cards etc etc

or go as far as phil and loose dash and heater and washer bottle lol

well on the 1.0 theres is nothing you can do , and im not taking the piss neither

as the exhaust comes from the back of the engine you can't fit any of the higher spec nova ones , same for other parts eg, cams , carbs etc none will fit :(

best thing to do is to spend ?150 on everythin you need to do a conversion and then do that (providing insurance allows)

if not your stuck with 45bhp :lol:
