p plate laws wont let you mod it either. But id say extractors/exhaust good fuel?

service it with top quality fluids, good fuel etc. Maybe an exhaust system. Sadly you won't make much more power unless you go all out, your best off keeping it clean/reliable & then converting it to V8 or buy something else in the future.

202's like good airflow and exhausts. it wont make significant power thoug however. if your willing to spend money on it, get a cam put in, new plenum and bore it out to 208

I had a Calais vk with inj 202! pretty sure it had a cam, standard headers, think hotdog and muffler! lumpy Sound like a v8 and went pretty well! but drank the fuel bad! $20 would get me about 100kms back when fuel was $1 a litre! so ~18 - 20litres 100kms! not good! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
