if u want to keep the mpi then stick a better cam and a full exhaust (no cat) and that should take you over 90bhp.

I'd suggest head work first mate, try PM'ing Gary on Mig, i believe he does very good work for a fraction of the price the big names will charge you.

Id remove the 1.4i engine and replace it as it will go wrong sooner or later.

head work is a good option and i would do it at the same time as the cam so you don't have to take head off again.
