You can get a bit more power but it can become expensive

a piper exhaust (about £700) remap and panel filter could make upto 118Hp - that includes a decat and 4 branch manifold

Superchips bluefin claims 112 Hp with the map alone,which costs £249

a K&N panel filter can add 1 to 2 hp at higher revs, and increase throttle response a little, on some NA cars, mostly, the improvement is bacause of the extra noise or the old filter needed changed (you must compare new to new) its only about £30 though - cone filters make a lot more noise (giving the illusion of power) but loose power when they draw more warm air

NA (naturally asperated/ non- turbo) engines tend to have smaller power increases to remaps and can cost more to tune than turbo engines

118Hp is a bit more than 100 but its not going to worry "proper" hot hatches etc (eg, the latest STs etc)

the zs is a nippy, well balanced car, you can reduce weight and upgrade tyres etc, but the fact is, if you really want to go a lot quicker, changing the car may be a better option
