If your not planning on an engine swap yet concentrate on handling/stopping quickly, powerflew bushes, strut brace, decent shocks and springs/coilovers, good quality tyres, bigger brakes and then save for a 1.4/1.6 16v engine, i wouldn't go wasting money trying to improve the power on a 1.2 it'l cost you more than it's worth

Have a look at a whiteline or cavalier rear anti roll bar upgrade, one of the best modifications you can do on a Corsa to get it handling better.

only viable financial way of upping the power of an x12xe is to replace ot with a higher capacity engine
