the 1.8 puts out 115 hp, what do you expect.

some mods you can start with to make it more responsive:

tighten the throttle cable
install a high flow air filter

i see no point in tightening the throttle cable unless it is VERY VERY loose, to the point where you have to press the pedal half way down to get anything above idle.

my cable is a little loose but when the car is off and im messing with my safc, if i put the pedal to the floor the throttle percentage still reads 100%.

a drop in air filter will help, but dont expect huge gains from any bolt on mods for the 7afe engine.

FI is the only way to get a decent amount of power out of the engine.
