i had a furio a few years back was just striped including spare wheel would only lose 1-2 cars length to 60ish from a vtr, pretty sure there was a kit to increase the 1.4 to about 1.5 using vtr crank and different con rods but probibly not worth the money.

I think I have seen brand new Nitros kits for £500 from Wizzards of nos. A 50Bhp shot would be ok.
