Does it have a turbo?

Things to start off with;

Exhaust, maybe a decat for noise?

Air filter,

remap;

Iridium spark plugs when you next change them;

Bigger intercooler (if Turbo'd);

A new fuel filter might even make a difference!

Where is the best place to get this stuff from ?

Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC

eBay, scrap yards, car part supplier/retailer

May even find some of it on the forum! :)

Remap could be bluefin or get it dyno'd and a custom map

How do I make it a turbo can this be done mate ?

If it's a none turbo yes it can but at a huge cost. I wouldn't go down that road if it's not a turbo engine. Just stick to the remaps and other stuff. One of the other things is use a good fuel like she'll v-power or bp ultimate fuel instead of supermarket or normal fuel. Doesn't give the bhp increase but cause it burns better with less carbon clogging the engine it makes a world of difference.

Sometimes an engine clogged with carbon can perform better - if there's a build up on top of the pistons this has the effect of raising the compression ratio ;)
